Climate change is causing a breed of wild sheep in Scotland to shrink. Scientists began studying Soay sheep in 1985, since when they have decreased in size by five per cent - their legs getting steadily shorter and their body weight decreasing.

It must be all that washing in hot water...
Does this mean wool sheared from them will be pre-shrunk?
Have they been secretly clipped by a wandering clan perhaps?

I'm shrinking too, so they say!
I thought wool shrinks in water not without it.
hmmmm, so one day soon they can become household pet like dogs...
Why do you think I left there, and how I came by my name?
