Speaking of sheep pastures in Australia, you may think that it is like this...
Or is it something like this...
In short, it's all a simple pastoral style...
Recently, however, a sheep farm in Australia has seen a different picture:
There are more than 400 lambs in the whole ranch
Wear sweaters in a variety of colors
At first glance
I thought I had come to the ranch in the cartoon...
Although the lambs in sweaters look cute and cute, such a scene has also been questioned by many people:
Sweater a sheep?
Isn't that a bit too much...
Could it be that the rancher wants to attract attention and increase his business?
This matter is spreading more and more, and it has also attracted the attention of the Australian media, and the reporter came to the ranch to investigate only to learn that behind these sweater lambs, there is a story that makes people feel a lot...
It turns out that the matter of wearing a sweater for the lamb is not something that the rancher came up with in order to attract attention.
These sweaters
It's all for the lamb's life...
Australia has suffered a severe drought not long ago, coupled with the unusually cold weather, the pasture has less and less feed, and many ewes are not enough to eat.
It is simply impossible to raise young lambs
Without their mother's care, the lambs could hardly endure the cold weather, became weaker and weaker, and were dying...
Faced with such a situation
The herders are also helpless
At this time, a nearby female neighbor named Knight happened to pass by the ranch and found the situation of the lambs, she decided to call her friends to knit some sweaters for the lambs to help them survive the winter, and also to reduce the burden of the anxious herders...
In this way, Knight and his friends were busy knitting sweaters for the lambs almost every day, and over 100 of them had been knitted and worn on the lambs over the past few weeks...
More and more people are also learning from Knight about what happened to the lamb
Everyone spontaneously joined in
Weave warmth for the lambs
Thanks to everyone's efforts, each lamb has its own sweater, and they finally don't have to be afraid of the cold anymore...
Knight and his friends didn't stop, they opened a social account called "Lamb Jumpers", calling on everyone to knit more sweaters for the sheep who are experiencing the cold winter, and also called on herders in need to contact them.
They want to use their strength,
Helping herders who are experiencing difficulties to tide over difficult times
More and more people responded to Knight's call, some knitting sweaters for the lamb with them, and some paying for yarn and materials, in a small sweater
With the generosity and kindness of countless people
I believe that this winter, with the help of Knight and the good Samaritans, the lambs and herders will no longer feel cold...
