stupidity of sheep.

The stupidest animal in the world
is a plain, everyday sheep. Farmers
are never done telling about their
stupid doings, productive both of an
noyance and financial loss. Here is a
specimen case. A valuable sheep was
missing, and after long search the
owner concluded that it had been
killed by dogs. Some days later,
while looking under the barn floor.
he saw the missing animal in n salt
barrel. The barrel was lying on it's
side, and the sheep had gone in to
lick up the salt which adhered to the
sides of the barrel. Finding that II
could not go on through, IL stopped,
and had been there seven days when
discovered, without food or drink.
And il would have stayed there until
IL persisted. All IL had TO do was to
back out of the barrel, but IL hadn't
sense enough to do it.-Golden Days.
