Shearing Sheep in Kaikoura







Today we saw a sheering of a sheep here in Kaikoura.
There are 34 million sheep in NZ, that is 10 sheep to every person. That's a lot of sheep!
The record of shearing sheep is 560 in 8 hours! The guy who sheared the sheep today said he did it in slow-motion, which was 3 minutes!!
The kids loved the dog: Jed, and thinks we should get one when we get home:)
