Sheep, like any other livestock, needs to be washed to remove parasites. But if you have a lot of sheep, how are you supposed to do that? Go through and wash them all one by one? Who’s got time for that? I have kids to pretend to take care of!

Instead, farmers opt for a simpler approach: putting them all in a big box, then dunking them into an anti-parasite solution. Don’t worry, the sheep aren’t harmed in this process—but I can’t make any promises about what will happen to them once this is completed.
