Weird.

Sheep seem to not align themselfs with any direction.
I do what I think is right. But I don't think that what I think is right can not be wrong.

Not all of them align the same way, just most of them in the herd. Probly somthing to do with better sight or somthing to be safer when eating. Guess it will be a while b4 we knwo that :)
A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

Didn't know about the north-south thingy, I just knew of them forming 1 front, but that had to do with predators, nobody wanting to step in front and them moving forwards for new food.
