I wonder if it was our "ada" who reported this?(!)...

Sheep are not native to Japan and traditionally the Japanese do not keep much livestock.

Seems many Japanese people have never seen a sheep before and don't know how a sheep looks.

Still quite strange.

Let's see if this sounds right. They can afford $1600 for a (sheep)poodle, but thay don't have enough money for a cheap (maybe even a Sony) TV set or Internet to actually see what the animals look like.

That's more than strange; that's numbnutz.

Is it just me who finds it amusing that ted was the one to post this?

you'd think with the first 'baaa' - they would figure it out.  actually had to go to the doggie salon first?  children are so deprived nowdays.  they never get to see baby animals and so cannot figure out which is which.
