Subject: Overgrown Australian sheep Chris 'breaks world record'

Written By: Philip Eno on 09/03/15 at 8:18 am

An overgrown Australian sheep affectionately named Chris has set a new unofficial world record following a hair cut from five shearers. Welfare crews warned it risked death because it was so woolly from living in the wild for several years. More than 40kg (88lb) of wool was removed in what the RSPCA says is the heaviest wool haul from one shearing. National shearing champion Ian Elkins was urgently called in on Wednesday to tackle the mammoth merino.
