00:00 Yeah, he was found pretty much in the rain. It was pretty torrential at that point.
00:05 His whole coat had been, so he's been shorn as you can see.
00:07 It all just sort of soaks in because it's wool. It doesn't really give out.
00:12 So he's pretty much soaking wet and one of the ACT Rangers luckily managed to catch him.
00:18 And he came on the back of his truck and we pretty much got him up here and left him alone.
00:22 But he was pretty scared because you know, he's used to being in a flock and at the moment
00:28 he's by himself and he's a sheep sheep. He's not a pet sheep. So he's not used to people at all.
00:33 He only really knows us from giving him food maybe occasionally or having the dogs running around.
00:38 But yeah, he's pretty stressed as you can see. He's still hiding away. I don't think that he will come out
00:45 because he's pretty old now and he's pretty scared as well.
00:49 But hopefully I would love for the owners come forwards. It just means he can go back to his friends, to his flock,
00:55 you know, it's been a pretty traumatic experience for him. So going home would be really essential.
