Do they have lemur blood in them?

Bhelliom · 07-08-2005

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 Friday.

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

"There's nothing we can do. They're all wasted," Nevzat Bayhan, a member of one of 26 families whose sheep were grazing together in the herd, was quoted as saying by Aksam.

The estimated loss to families in the town of Gevas, located in Van province in eastern Turkey, is close to 100,000 Turkish lira, which is equal to roughly $91,000 Cdn. This is a significant amount of money in a country where average GDP per person is around $2,700 US.

"Every family had an average of 20 sheep," Aksam quoted another villager, Abdullah Hazar as saying. "But now only a few families have sheep left. It's going to be hard for us."

What a weird thing

Apparently... the sheep will allways follow the crowd... and the followers will win out in the end

What I find weird is that people graze sheeps at the edges of cliffs. Isn't there some time of idiot switch that you can flip to turn the lights on in these people's heads?

I blame irresponsible parents for this tragedy.

Bhelliom · 07-08-2005

agreed... but seriously... who would expect 1500 sheep to all of a sudden jump off a cliff?

Yes, it is lemmings.. Lemur's hang out in trees, I dont believe they routinely jump out of those trees to their deaths. Silly summer workers!!!

Maybe L. Ron Hubbard told them to.

I've always been ambivalent toward him. Until he went on his latest parade of antics.
