Il numero di pecore nel Regno Unito è sceso al livello più basso a memoria d’uomo

This is so baaaaaad. Ewed think they do something about it.

This headline is based on faulty data. Researchers are actually unsure how many sheep there are as they keep falling asleep while trying to count them.

Jokes aside, there’s such shite money in sheep farming. Farmers get such little money for wool it often costs them more to shear the sheep than they can sell it for. And once adult they’re pretty much useless for anything else except grazing.

Sheep lead to a mono-culture. An only-grass habitat where other plants and species find it difficult to survive. A few less sheep would be good for the environment. Reading other comments, it sounds like keeping sheep is not economically attractive anyway.
