@@amethyst354 There was an article about a sheep that was in the wilderness for a few years and put on pounds and pounds of wool... that at one point it was even attacked by a wolf but it couldn't get through the wool. . Now this could be a completely separate sheep.
Love this comment Flea Flicker Love how the others crowded around to greet him. One with a wheelchair as if its saying, "hey mate youre in the perfect place, youre safe here."💖👍
Probably yeah, the sheep in the wheelchair looked like it was recovering from flystrike. That's when flies deposit maggots into mounds on a sheep's backside to eat their flesh away.
Forget predators! How did he not fall? And if he had gotten rain soaked he would not be able to stand again if he went down. I have a chubby sheep and we found her on her back,legs pointing to the sky lol we assume she had slipped down the dam embankment ( she couldn’t get herself up 😐) Just to clarify she’s fine .. Grass fermenting in a sheep’s stomach produces gas, and if the sheep is on its back the gas can't escape. As the gas builds up in the sheep's stomach it causes pressure on the lungs, eventually preventing it from breathing.
That massive amount of wool is probably what kept him alive so long. The other animals were probably too scared to eat him because they didn’t know what he was 🤣
It made me tear up seeing the lady rub his sweet head and comfort him when they were removing the wool. It's so wonderful to see people being kind to animals. They are such sensitive creatures.
@@malloryg4251 I know it was like he was saying thank you..... Seeing the world with his eyes in a whole different light..... Such a beautiful creature..... ❣️
You did extremely well buddy! I’m proud of you for staying strong and surviving all those years! That must have been tough carrying all those wool. Thank you for that person who found you and the people who helped. Bless your hearts ❤
What's also ironic is that the giant wool coat probably helped him survive just as much as it burdened him, as it would be a portable winter shelter and the local predators would be unable to actually hurt him. Of course, this likely also came at the price of being tortuously heavy to move around in, dangerously hot during summer, and unable to see anything that isn't directly below him.
@@GicN They were not this fluffy in the wild, after domestication humans bred sheep to grow more and more wool that we could shear off of them for our own use. So to answer your question: they survived evolution by having humans shear them before the wool grew too big.
Literally had tears in my eyes watching how much pain he was in, hurts my heart and soul when I see a beautiful animal left like this completely alone in the wild. I'm so glad he has a good home now❤️❤️❤️❤️

It was literally “on its last legs” but we managed to roll it back over and two of us lift in into the back of the tray back ute & take it back to the farmers property where it was sheared of its fleece. The wool staple was over 12 inches long. Local craft ladies cleaned and hand spun the wool & knitted “greasy wool” jumpers out of it.
@@HellRazer-187 Some countries didn't even get vaccines yet, you know? Because the 1st world is hoarding them. Tens of thousands of doses are expiring on the daily 🤣
It is cruel to breed an animal so that it loses its ability to survive on its own. This sheep suffered like this because humans bred these from wild sheep that could shed the coats by themselves. Also, mulessing sheep is cruel.
@@salonikamat9048 Agreed, although saying mulesing is cruel is kind of like saying circumcision is cruel, it's painful but at least it prevents flystrike
“I can’t imagine how he survived” Well imagine being a wolf and having to chew trough the whole thing. I wouldn’t even try Edit: OKAY, I get it: no wolves in Australia. than imagine being a dingo ffs.
Once you've gotten the head off you can get to the neck and start to eat from the inside out (I'm referring to just the inside of the wool, not climbing into the body cavity)

"He is so intelligent" After raising countless orphan lambs as well as sheep rescued from meatworks I made a remark to an old bloke that sheep are far more intelligent than we realise. Instantly I was ridiculed and told to get off the grass. I still say they definitely are.
Sheep are not what you'd think of as traditionally intelligent I'd say - they're not as creative or as observant as many wild animals - but they are very intelligent when it comes to dealing with humans. That sheep could tell from their body language, their tone of voice when they talked to him, and from past experience, that the humans weren't planning to hurt him and he shouldn't resist being sheared, and that's something many species would have struggled with.
I often meet people that just find it impossible to open up their little minds and notice the behavior of animals. It most certainly is intelligent and curious. Problem is people are too self centered sometimes and do not give "lesser life forms" a second thought.
@@globalincident694 I watched one, a Marino cross lift the gate latch with its snout then push open the gate before the latch fell again. Tell me that doesn't show intelligence.
@@kofola9145 Intelligence is ability to problem solve, create or invent an action, device or situation to gain an advantage or to simplify something already in use etc. Intelligence also allows us not to become impetuous. Intelligence can't be explained simply as it has infinite definitions.
It’s pretty insane how much the domestic sheep has been genetically modified through selective breeding. Wild sheep and goats aren’t shorn on a regular basis either
That's why this was so cruel to the sheep, he needs humans to shear him at least once a year. Leaving him out in the wild like that was terrible, and I can only hope happened because of an unfortunate accident. Honestly it's a miracle that he survived that long with that much wool.
@@CrystalzDCUO you think all wild sheep or goats end up looking like this if they aren’t shorn by a human on a regular basis? The domestic sheep is genetically modified so it’s wool grows much faster and keeps growing.
Can you just imagine the relief of all that wool off him.

Why are there still lockdowns?
😂😂👍
Funny you should mention that.
During the hard lockdown, I went 3 months without being able to get a haircut.
@@cal0815 haha i didn't go for a year and 2 months.
Just got a fade today😀💪🏽

That sheep literally had the wool pulled over his eyes 👀
Ahhhh i see what you did there
haha i said the same thing...that saying kept popping into my head
Oh my gosh
He survived, he had the will to live on. Fucking faith that’s what ppl need
And PETA says its cruel to shear sheep... They have no idea what they're talking about.
Peta is stupid
PETA have no idea full stop.
PETA:

It is cruel to breed an animal so that it loses its ability to survive on its own. This sheep suffered like this because humans bred these from wild sheep that could shed the coats by themselves. Also, mulessing sheep is cruel.
@@salonikamat9048 Agreed, although saying mulesing is cruel is kind of like saying circumcision is cruel, it's painful but at least it prevents flystrike
the wool was literally pulled over his eyes
In the end he got fleeced

Most underrated comment
bless all who saved him and groomed him for a loving safe home! He must feel wonderful and lighter!
He must feel like Rock Lee on the Chunin exams after throwing out his weights.

Lmao yeah
That’s what I was thinking lmao
I was going to say he was in the woods training to fight Sheep-Vegeta.
Xd
This goat had training weights on. What a fucking legend.
Like Goku
He’s not a goat.
@@stila1123 I assume he meant GOAT as in greatest of all time, not a literal goat
@@biancaluedeker no like Rock Lee, Goku wears weighted clothes not actual weights.
It's a sheep
0:43 Other animals are like, “the hell happen to you buddy?”
😂 they have soo many questions
that sheep with the animal wheelchair b like: wha- what the hell- i have no words
Yeah I love how they're all just observing intently with front row seats while he's struggling to freaking stand 😂
😂
,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 they was looking like what is this
Such a feel good story
Being lost in the forest for all that time.
And now he's a a sheep rescue farm.
I'm so glad that he has a happy ending.
“I can’t imagine how he survived”
Well imagine being a wolf and having to chew trough the whole thing. I wouldn’t even try
Edit: OKAY, I get it: no wolves in Australia. than imagine being a dingo ffs.
Ur a lazy wolf 😏
lmao
@@prettyprettypumpkin8450 it probably smelt so bad.
Go for the face I say
Once you've gotten the head off you can get to the neck and start to eat from the inside out
(I'm referring to just the inside of the wool, not climbing into the body cavity)
He probably keeps looking at you because he doesn’t quite know how to say “Thank you so much!”
Chill out, what ya yellin' for? Lay back, it's all been done before. And if you could only let it be, you will see that I am the funniest YouT*ber of all time. Admit it, my dear follow*r bring
@@AxxLAfriku uhm what?
@@AxxLAfriku I have no idea why I laughed at that.
He looks so proud now that he got that off his chest
The other sheep greeting him in a wheelchair warmed my heart! ❤❤❤😍😍😍❤❤❤
That's a lot of wool!
Glad they were able to help the poor sheep. What an amazing before and after picture.
Alternate title: Woolly Boi loses 80 pounds after mind-blowing operation
but he wasnt fat . its his wool
@@tahmin9866 did he say it was fat?
Operation implies that it's fat.

@@randomdude8790 yes your so smart omg 🌈 ❤
"I can't imagine how he survived, but he did" Yeah no wolf no matter how powerful their jaw bite is could bite through that much wool LOL

i have shaved my beard once in my life, and the feeling my chin had touching my wool blanket was literally insane for the first couple days; it was so insanely sensitive it was hard to sleep. i can only imagine having that same feeling across your entire body

Now you do know you could use a kitchen knife or a pair of garden scissors until your sheering facility...ummmmm...I meant your hairdresser opens after lockdown, right?! 🤓

tactical sheep
@@zw5-555 sheep 6 going dark
It's such a relief that he ended up in a sanctuary and not in a farm. Long life to that baby
Had one in New Zealand like this they called him Shrek was running wild in the mountains for years before he was bought in and relieved of his fleece. Became a bit of a celebrity with kids🤗
That 80 pounds of wool on him probably saved him from predators! What an amazing and sweet story.
That sheep in the wheelchair that came out to calm him down, how sweet
He looks like he's wearing a hoodie.
He was 🤣🤣
A very thicc hoodie lmao
he was wearing at least 50 lol
Looks like busta rhymes in one of his clips
Drip sheep
Omg when he started nibbling on the hay...SO cute
Thank You For Helping Him! God Bless You Baby!
The entire time all I can think is: GIVE THAT POOR THING A BATH!
Or get him checked for an infection-
Compacted wool is waterproof though, its better to shave first
I think he needs time for water to touch his bare skin again, they will do it after 3 4 months i guess.
The rehab was the primary goal
Ik
I think they know what they're doing
They are such Life SHAVERS
I'll see myself out
U broke the internet with that one! Good one
I wish i wooldve thought of it...
Hilarious, both of you!! 🤣😂
This comment should be pinned
That joke wasn't so Baaad
This is gold!!!
Thank you for giving this boy his life back. What an uplifting story.
Thank You and God Bless All the People that help these innocent beautiful animals 🙏❤️
He is so gentle! His prayers were answered. I bet he feels footloose and fancy-free ! God bless everyone who helped him.
Which God exactly do you mean? Don't want to go to hell.

"He is so intelligent" After raising countless orphan lambs as well as sheep rescued from meatworks I made a remark to an old bloke that sheep are far more intelligent than we realise. Instantly I was ridiculed and told to get off the grass. I still say they definitely are.
Sheep are not what you'd think of as traditionally intelligent I'd say - they're not as creative or as observant as many wild animals - but they are very intelligent when it comes to dealing with humans. That sheep could tell from their body language, their tone of voice when they talked to him, and from past experience, that the humans weren't planning to hurt him and he shouldn't resist being sheared, and that's something many species would have struggled with.
I often meet people that just find it impossible to open up their little minds and notice the behavior of animals. It most certainly is intelligent and curious. Problem is people are too self centered sometimes and do not give "lesser life forms" a second thought.
@@globalincident694 I watched one, a Marino cross lift the gate latch with its snout then push open the gate before the latch fell again. Tell me that doesn't show intelligence.
@@zalired8925 Define intelligence. There are oh so many ppl who think intelligence= degree or following a certain ideology.
@@kofola9145 Intelligence is ability to problem solve, create or invent an action, device or situation to gain an advantage or to simplify something already in use etc. Intelligence also allows us not to become impetuous. Intelligence can't be explained simply as it has infinite definitions.
It’s pretty insane how much the domestic sheep has been genetically modified through selective breeding. Wild sheep and goats aren’t shorn on a regular basis either
That's why this was so cruel to the sheep, he needs humans to shear him at least once a year. Leaving him out in the wild like that was terrible, and I can only hope happened because of an unfortunate accident. Honestly it's a miracle that he survived that long with that much wool.
@@jamesteegardner2273 no
@@jamesteegardner2273 I believe he had wondered off at some point, dont think farmers would readily ditch expensive livestock?
I just wondered how sheep would get rid of their wool in nature. Guess this is the answer
@@CrystalzDCUO you think all wild sheep or goats end up looking like this if they aren’t shorn by a human on a regular basis? The domestic sheep is genetically modified so it’s wool grows much faster and keeps growing.
This sheep looks like it knows everything in the universe and has come to tell us everything
