    I really like the way he explains. Well humans don't like going to the dentist but must because of health issues. Same sheep won't like shearing but it's a must.

    do they animals ever bite when they are sheared? Do the handlers ever cut their skin when they shave them? Do the males act differently than the females?

    I never been bitten or heard of anyone who has but I have been rammed by the horn a few times and yes I do and some other shearer I know cut occasionally but then we treat the cut with Terramycin spray and honestly depends what breed ur shearing but yes and no
