Hundreds of sheep in UK branded with mysterious smiley face
Hundreds of sheep have been painted with a bizarre 'smiley face' symbol in fields across the country.

The strange image has sparked debate on social networking sites after it was first reported on 20 animals in a field in Melton Mowbray, in Leicestershire.

There have since been sightings in a further five fields across the UK, including Perthshire in Scotland, and 500 miles south in Exeter, Devon.

Re: Hundreds of sheep in UK branded with mysterious smiley face
Anyone who has kept sheep knows they are not easy to catch, or hold still long enough to paint them. This is why sheepdogs are employed. Either this is a sheep whisperer, or.. well, i just don't know . Cheery sight, though : )

Re: Hundreds of sheep in UK branded with mysterious smiley face
To paint the sheep would not taken long at all

as it was obviously done with a stencil and black spray paint

How can you tell because in some of the pictures you can see the line of black paint when the spray has gone outside of the stencil.sheepsheepsheepsheep
