Eustachius answered Friday June 2 2006, 8:52 pm: Haha! ^_^ Sheep ranchers often cut the tails of sheep short. This is because the feces of the sheep get easily caught on the tail and cause health problems. They don't do it immediately after birth, so I wouldn't be surprised if the ewe had no tail and the lamb had one. [ Eustachius's advice column | Ask Eustachius A Question ]
