Perhaps, Beware of falling sheep.
Hiker in Ireland injured by falling sheep.
Rachel Flaherty
A hiker was injured after being hit by a falling sheep while walking on the Mourne Mountains in Co Down.
The teenage boy was walking with a group near Hares Gap when he was struck by a sheep jumping from an adjacent crag on Friday.
Mourne Mountain Rescue Team said they received a call for help about 4.30pm.
The rescue team of 17 people found the teenager on a steep slope on Slieve Bearnagh.
“The casualty was assessed and treated for a range of potential injuries including head, neck, back, abdominal and leg injuries,” the group said in a Facebook post.
The teen was evacuated by stretcher and taken to Ulster Hospital for treatment.
“We believe the sheep was uninjured and left the area unaided,” the team said.
