Upside-down sheep
Sheep born with head the wrong way

A sheep is apparently living a normal life, despite the fact that it was born with an upside-down head.

The animal can be seen happily grazing a field in North Yorkshire in a recent video posted on YouTube by Allan McNamara, a friend of the owner.

Mr McNamara has also posted photos online of the sheep, whose name is Terry, to prove the video's authenticity.

It is thought that the sheep was born with a twisted spine, though Mr McNamara said the farmer has had him checked over by a vet, and all is okay. He also added the Terry's disability doesn't cause any problems.

"He was born with his head the wrong way round," Mr McNamara posted on his YouTube account.

"He lives happily and has been checked by a vet to ensure he is in no pain. He can eat, sleep and do everything other sheep can."
