A Big Red X Marks the Sheep
While driving from Cardona to Vic, we saw sheep everywhere. They were sometimes in the roads, and so we had to stop to avoid hurting them. On this two-lane road, we saw several sheep with some kind of marking on them. We were too far away to tell what it was exactly. Therefore, Allan stopped the car and went up to the wire fence to get a closer look. One of the sheep had a big red X on his back.We thought that it meant that he would be killed. Oh, no...we worried and worried about the poor sheep.Later on, we asked the locals, and they told us that he was marked to be sheared. Thank Goodness!
