This has no relevance to gadgets at all – but it is one of those things you see and just makes you smile..
BBC News have an article about sheep that have learnt how to roll across an 8ft hoof-proof cattle grid to get to tastier food on the other side on the Yorkshire Moors..
I would love to see them in action! Perhaps they have been watching Babe recently..

This does not surprise me at all. I have kept sheep for many decades and find them resourceful and intelligent creatures. They are inquisitive, playful and very affectionate They are also very trainable and willing to please when they have learned to trust someone(see a young ewe learning agility If any of my flock of around 40 is in trouble, one of the ‘leader’ sheep will invariably come to the house and call to me. I can call most of my 30 sheep from the flock by name, or they will seek me out simply for a pat and some affection. Usually when I am doing something outdoors I have one or two sheep ‘helping’, rubbing on or pawing at my legs or chewing my hat or hair. Some of the sheep come to the back door and tap it with their foot to get my out to give them a backrub or a treat. They make eye contact and answer when I speak to them. Sheep also have a sense of fun and often play, even the adults. I think sheep are very undervalued and deserve much better treatment than they often get from farmers.
