asakiyumeTwitter was tempting me yesterday with a story about an Australian sheep, lost in the wild for a long time, that was encumbered by its huge fleece. It really looked like a **person** in very capacious outerwear. So I drew that:
Really, though, domesticated sheep are no longer like wild sheep--they need to be shorn periodically--and this poor guy was underweight from not being able to eat much because all the fleece around his face interfered with his eating.
Now he's been shorn, and he must feel positively weightless. (Picture, as the stamp indicates, is yoinked from Reuters. The picture I screencapped above was from CNN, I believe).
Here's a Huffpost story on it, or you can just Google "wild Australian sheep" and stories will turn up.
