Thread: Keeping New Zealand safe. one sheep at a time!

I almost hit a young bull on the road a few at 5am one morning last week.
Another farming type gentleman stopped after he almost hit it too, we tried to herd it back through a gate but it wasn't keen on that and resorted to trying to charge me and then tanked off down the road. Don't know where it ended up going, but I know if someone had shot it would certainly not have complained.

I also had a close run in with 4 dairy cows on the same stretch of road, thankfully they were a pretty docile and were keen to get back into a paddock.

Needless to say, coming across cattle on the road is not fun and had I been in that same situation I would've shot the Ewe. Herding sheep in a paddock can be hard enough for un-experienced folk, let alone on SH1.
