450 Sheep Jump to Their Deaths in Turkey
ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP) - First one sheep jumped to its death. Then stunned Turkish shepherds, who had left the herd to graze while they had breakfast, watched as nearly 1,500 others followed, each leaping off the same cliff, Turkish media reported.

Hmmmm, perhaps, they were tired of all the man loving. Image

450 of them? Wow!

I wonder how many people fell asleep before they came to that total. Image

Disinfo Agent, don't make me take you to the room for a time-out. :P

In the end, 450 dead animals lay on top of one another in a billowy white pile, the Aksam newspaper said. Those who jumped later were saved as the pile got higher and the fall more cushioned, Aksam reported.

Poor little sheep just plopping down one after one on top of each other.

Reminds me of Monty Python's "Flying Sheep" skit...

"They don't so much fly as plummet."
