Conspiracy Theory #15324. The CIA clearly brainwashed these sheep into thinking they were lemmings in order to impoverish a Muslim village :mad: :2guns:
ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP) - First one sheep jumped to its death. Then stunned Turkish shepherds, who had left the herd to graze while they had breakfast, watched as nearly 1,500 others followed, each leaping off the same cliff, Turkish media reported.
In the end, 450 dead animals lay on top of one another in a billowy white pile, the Aksam newspaper said. Those who jumped later were saved as the pile got higher and the fall more cushioned, Aksam reported.
``There’s nothing we can do. They’re all wasted,‘’ Nevzat Bayhan, a member of one of 26 families whose sheep were grazing together in the herd, was quoted as saying by Aksam.
The estimated loss to families in the town of Gevas, located in Van province in eastern Turkey, tops $100,000, a significant amount of money in a country where average GDP per head is around $2,700. Every family had an average of 20 sheep,'' Aksam quoted another villager, Abdullah Hazar as saying. But now only a few families have sheep left. It’s going to be hard for us.‘’
Re: Turkey: 1500 sheep jump off cliff. 450 die, rest bounce off dead bodies
Ahhh such a bunch of foools u r, somebody left an unattended baggage in the yard & the sheeps feared there was a bomb, they jumped off the cliff thinking there was river flowing down under but to their worst nightmare, the river was dry as all the water was donated to the africans, as a proposed idea by uncle george bush in the G8 summit, darn we humans r so cruel. :(
