    I can't believe how calm she's been through the whole rescue and shearing. For a sheep that wouldn't have had that much human contact before she got stuck, she's been so tolerant and even cooperative of the help. I hope she continues to thrive with friends when she's had time to recover from the traumatic events.

      From personal experience sheep are excellent at reading body language, and can actually be quite intelligent. They just have this extreme flocking instinct that seems to override whatever common sense they might have.

      I am presumingshe had some good farm life before she got stuck, so now she is home in a farm environment again, that is coming back to her. Humans feeding her, other sheep around, getting that heavy coat sheared off, she is finally feeling good again.

      i'm getting the impression she might've already been a year or two old at the time she got stuck down the cliff, she's really not skittish of humans so she's been around them enough already (prey animals, domesticated or not, do need a good bit of early and continued handling for that)

    • @johnsrabe
      @johnsrabe 11 месяцев назад +132

      Number one, they don’t actually know animals. Most farm animals are social, and don’t care whether they’re hanging out with a pig, a sheep, a cow, or even a human being.
      But maybe more importantly, if they’re trying to protect animals, and perhaps get them more humanely treated, and not eaten quite as often, then they should want the general public to have close contact with animals and keep the pressure on farms to treat them humanely.
      Anyway, nice job shearers!

    Something that really gets me about Fiona is her temperament, alone for years and dodging humans yet she's so calm and friendly! I wish her nothing but the best life from now on, no more overgrown wool and some friends to hang out with plus a lot of food in her belly!

    That smile at the end and her calm demeanor throughout says it all 😊. Fiona was so happy to be rescued then relieved of nearly 10 lbs of matted, stinking, dirty wool. This guy did an amazing job in the matter of minutes while making sure Fiona was as comfortable as possible the entire time. Thank you, sir, for caring and putting her health and safety first. Anyone with the ability to comprehend things can see she is in the right place to live her best life here on out. People really should do their own thorough research before protesting things they don’t truly understand; and, don’t forget to fact check your sources.

    So what if it's not the best-looking shearing job. Every action & decision ever taken has always been about doing the very best for Fiona. Plus, going to Dalscone Farm to live with sheep friends has benefitted Fiona so much. She's such a lovely lass with an amazing temperament, especially for a sheep who has never been used to human contact.
    Thanks again to everyone for rescuing Fiona & showing love & kindness towards her. Also, thank you for the updates on FB.❤😍

I seen there Your friend Sandi Brock was talking about what you all did for her. & Sandi has said she would love to have her to. My vote was ether you or Sandi take her. But I know Fiona is in a great home. Please keep us up to date with Fiona. Thank you Cammy.

    I bet she must feel so much better without the extra weight of all that dense wool.
    Well done to everyone in the rescue and recovery of Fiona.
