Sheep gives birth at nativity scene
|
Onlookers at a West Side funeral home's nativity scene featuring live animals have a new attraction to ewe and awe over after Charleston firefighters helped deliver a baby sheep. "The sheep was slinging around, trying to get the baby out of her," Battalion Chief Eric Kessler said of the ewe's condition when crews arrived. They managed to deliver the lamb, but Kessler said he and the rest of the impromptu veterinary assistants were not out of the woods yet. "The baby was cold and sluggish," Kessler said. "We took her inside the funeral home and wrapped her in hot towels and heat packs." The new arrival eventually began to warm and starting taking a bottle, Kessler said. The lamb was fine when crews cleared the scene. Both the mother and baby now are part of the nativity scene.
Awwwww...
The same nativity scene was in the news last week when an East Bank man was arrested after police allegedly found him having sex with one of the sheep. The man was charged with trespassing, cruelty to animals and destruction of property.
I wonder if the new lamb looks like him?
