Wageningen police responded to a rather unusual call this morning: approximately fifty sheep were spotted taking an unauthorized stroll. The animals escaped their pasture adn officers worked to safely guide them off the road.
According to a report, the wandering sheep quickly became a local attraction. The circumstances of their escape remain unknown. Officers skillfully directed the flock across a roundabout and secured them in a schoolyard.
The sheep’s owner, assisted by a dog, eventually led the animals back to their pasture. Motorists experienced brief delays as the woolly travelers made their way home.
Did you know? – Sheep have excellent memories and can recognize at least 50 individual faces of other sheep and humans for up to two years.
pro tip – When encountering livestock on the road, reduce speed and give them space. Sudden movements or noises can startle the animals.
