Herd Of Sheep Get High On Marijuana

A herd of sheep got high on marijuana after mistaking it for food and feasting on the thousands of pound worth of cannabis.

The flock began stumbling around after getting extremely high on around seven full bags of the plants, which was dumped at Fanny’s Farm in Merstham, Surrey, England. The crop, consisting of plants as high as 3 feet tall, was dumped at the farm and was discovered by the sheep who feasted on it as it tasted better than their usual grass meal.

According to Nellie Budd, who manages Fanny’s Farm in Merstham, surrey, the sheep smelt of cannabis and were obviously high as they spent several hours stumbling and making strange noises.

“At first I thought it was someone’s hedgerow rubbish. I went down to collect the bags so the sheep weren’t eating black plastic. When I got there, I realised it was a form of herbal cannabis plant. They were very strong in scent. I have no idea how they got there. It’s right next to a road and the footpath is quite open,” Nellie Budd told The Mirror.

Fortunately, the happy flock of sheep didn’t suffer any other side effect from eating enough marijuana.

Detective Constable David Fair, the police officer in charge of the case, said it was irresponsible for whoever dumped the cannabis there for the sheep for feast upon. “We are doing all we can to find out how the drugs came to be at the location and who is responsible for growing and discarding the plants,” David Fair revealed.
