AGRICULTURE officials have yet to hear from sheep reportedly upset they've been sworn at.
AN extraordinary complaint, in which animal activists reported shearers at a NSW property for abuse because they were upsetting the herd with abusive language, generated global headlines last week.
While the case has been dropped, the issue came up at a Senate estimates hearing on Tuesday with Nationals senator John Williams demanding to know if department officials had received any formal complaints - from the sheep themselves.
"Not yet senator," policy official Fran Freeman said.

We are all waiting for the sheeple to rise up and demand justice, but I’m not holding my breath.
Baaaah...words don't bother me.
TONE of voice, that's a different story.
I do NOT like to be yelled at.
I would like the sheep to be sworn in. :)
When I live in a small town Devens, Massachusetts, an entrepreneur built a manufacturing facility. The people on Old Mill Road in Harvard just a few hundred yards from the facility on the former Army post began to complain that noises from the facility were making their dogs and horses paranoid. Testing revealed NO noise levels from the facility but did note that the largest noise producer on at the Harvard line were insects, mainly crickets!
The animal rights crowd tends to speak both to and for their pets. Both those actions were considered crazy and very crazy when I was growing up.
Baaaah...like I've never used the F-bomb before?
Give me a break.
I saw a movie a while back titled “The Edge of the World”. It was filmed on the small Scottish Island of Foula.
In one scene they showed sheep being shorn by women. They were not using knives or shears but were just pulling the wool off with their fingers. The sheep didn’t seem to mind.
Maybe the sheep are just too baaah-shful to complain.
This is a joke thread, right? If not, then tell me when the sheep started hunting the wolves.
5.56mm
Not a ping.
Was it with their bare hands? I remember seeing at one of those “historical reenactment” places they used to have gloves with like a metal brush on the palms that they could use to pull the wool out.
It was just their bare hands.
That island btw was very isolated. The film was about the island of St. Kilda but the owner would not allow filming there so they used Foula which was just about a twin in every way.
The actors had to literally build there own accommodations. I believe it was shot in the 1930s.
I should mention that there were maybe 50 people living on Foula and they used them all as extras.
The women doing the sheep shearing were clearly natives.
They still think that Obama is just wonderful.
Bleating and babbling, we fell on his neck with a scream
Wave upon wave of demented avengers
March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream
Have you heard the news?
The dogs are dead!
You better stay home and do as you’re told
Get out of the road if you wanna grow old...
How sweet! A jihadi brought his wife!
“Allahu Ack-baaaaaaa!”
“Come on, baby, give Daddy some lovin’.”
“Baaaaa....”
