NextImg:Sheep binge on 600 pounds of pot: ‘They found green stuff to eat’

They’ve been very baaaad.

A flock of sheep near the town of Almyros in Thessaly, Greece broke into a greenhouse and devoured 600 pounds of medical cannabis, reported Newsweek.

The sheep were seeking refuge from flooding after the aftermath of Storm Daniel.

The storm hit parts of the central and eastern Mediterranean, leading to extreme flooding in Libya as well as Turney, Bulgaria, and Greece, according to the World Meteorological Organization. 

In spite of the floodwaters, the sheep appeared to have found greener pastures. Although, the sheep were unable to pull the wool over their Shepard’s eyes. The Shepard said that after consuming Mary Jane, his sheep started exhibiting jumping higher than goats

The owner of the legal cannabis plant was dumbfounded by the event.

“I don’t know if it’s for laughing or crying. We have the heat; we lose a lot of production. We have the floods; we lose the rest. And the best: After all this, a herd of sheep, which I don’t know how to get back, entered the facility and started eating what was left,” he told TheNewspaper.gr.

“I don’t know what to say, honestly,” he added.

Farm owner Yannis Bourounis told a local radio producer: “They found green stuff to eat” and “jumping higher than goats, which never happens,” Newsweek reported.

The shepherd said the sheep were behaving strangely.

Weed

Weed poisoning in animals is on the rise.

Weed has been legal in Greece for medicinal purposes since 2017 and the country welcomed their first medical cannabis plant this year. While weed can have medicinal uses for humans, it’s dangerous for animals.

Cannabis poisoning among dogs is on the rise — especially in the US. There was an 11% percent uptick in cases last year and a 300% increase in the last five years, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Ever since pot dispensaries opened up in NYC, dogs have been poisoned after eating stoners’ stray joints and edibles.
