One day he saw a deer jumping straight up in the air coming back down repeatedly in the same spot with it hooves close together. His hunting guide said that probably means that the deer is trying to kill a snake. So that might be the way to have dancing sheep. Just add snakes to sheep in a confined space. Sheep leap to break snakes, it behooves them to be hooving them.esbbostonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09946279220170973147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808596250801819029.post-18871159295672115622014-08-02T20:45:43.137+01:002014-08-02T20:45:43.137+01:00I wish I lived where you do, it sounds so much int...I wish I lived where you do, it sounds so much interesting than where I am.<br />Also, I would pay good money to see a dancing sheep.
