The ram attacks the owner

Yesterday I saw a video on the Internet, the source is unknown, but it looks like the big brother in the video is Chinese.

In the video, it can be seen that a ram is rushing towards the big brother, apparently not intending to stop at all, and its head is facing the big brother. And the eldest brother was prepared, he was holding a stick in his hand and was maneuvering with the ram. At this time, you can see a flock of sheep coming to see the excitement in the back, I don't know if the ram called over to cheer, or the eldest brother called over to find a field for himself.

In short, after the ram rushed, the eldest brother found the opportunity to grab the ram's neck with his right hand, and beat the ram's body with a stick with his left hand. And the sheep scattered in all directions.

Most of the sheep shepherding videos we see on the Internet seem to be very harmonious, quiet and beautiful, but in fact, in the early days of sheep herding, many people will encounter the provocation of sheep. The sheep that dare to attack their masters are generally strong rams of the flock. The situation is the same in all countries and regions around the world where livestock farming exists.

When I was looking for information, I even saw people asking for advice on the Internet on the subject.

So why does the ram dare to be so arrogant?

Why did the ram do this?

Many people say that you should never turn your back on rams, because they are very unmartial and in some cases it is entirely possible to sneak up on humans, even if the person is their breeder. Some sheepdogs can even be attacked by rams!

The Rams did this to show off their strength.

Even if the sheep raised by humans generally have a leader, it may be the herder himself, it may be an obedient sheep, and some herders will train a sheepdog to be the leader of the flock. But the rams in the flock always instinctively want to be the strongest and the best, so that they can get more females and have more opportunities to mate. However, this also means that they are not very good-tempered, and sometimes they will deliberately attack their owners, believing that their owners or sheepdogs are potential competitors and therefore need to take them down.

In particular, those rams that are familiar with humans are the most dangerous, their "fear" of humans disappears, so they only think about defeating their "competitors" anytime and anywhere, so the situation of the ram attacking its owner will appear.

So how do you solve this problem?

Convince these rams, of course!

How to solve the problem?

The eldest brother in the first case was very experienced, he carried a stick strong enough with him, and he was not afraid of the ram, and immediately countered it until he gave in.

There is also a doorway for the choice of sticks to be used to beat sheep. According to the advice of experienced shepherds I've gathered online, the stick for beating sheep should be strong enough to hit, and even better if it is flexible so that it can hit the ground without breaking branches. Also, check that the surface of that side of the stick is smooth so that when the shepherd uses it, the hand will not be punctured; It would be better if there were some smaller branches on the other side of the stick, or even leaves.

When the ram is running towards the shepherd, the shepherd should always keep an eye on its condition. Then pick up the branch and swing it vigorously at the ram, so that the stick will make a sound in the air, which will generally frighten the average ram. The shepherd can also take two steps forward and shout to the ram. Do this several times and observe if the ram has a back-flinching response.

This sounds silly, but in reality it is a situation in which shepherds are trying to "regain dominance".

If the ram is still arrogantly attacking, the shepherd should not relent, but only hit the ram's head or body with a stick! Just beat it up! Otherwise, it will attack the shepherd next time. Don't worry, the ram's head is very strong, and using a pliable stick will only hurt it, it won't hurt it much.

If, after the shepherd has tried everything to scare the ram away, he still attacks the shepherd from time to time, then there is a real problem. I saw a blogger's male goat on the Internet, and every time I saw him, he would come and attack, and it was not a joke, it was the kind that really wanted to demonstrate.

Usually such sheep need to be disposed of, either by driving them out of the flock and isolating them, or by turning them into dinner.
