Sheep video causing a stir

A video showing a Cumbrian man rescuing a sheep is causing a stir on social media.

Darren Green uploaded the video - called "Saving a fat sheep that couldn't get up" - to Facebook.

In it, he comes across a sheep lying on his back, and helps it back to its feet.

The video already has hundreds of 'likes' and comments.

Many people have pointed out that Darren could well have saved the sheep's life - when a sheep becomes stuck like this it's known as a 'cast sheep', and can quickly become distressed and die.
