736 Sheep In 8 Hours!
Updated : Dec 22, 2008
A Co. Donegal man has set a new world record for lamb shearing in New Zealand.
Ivan Scott had to shear more than 731 sheep to break the original strongwool lamb shearing record.
New Zealand Radio reports Mr Scott pipped the previous record with a tally of 736 sheep.
Last week a champion shearer from Scotland, Gavin Mutch, failed to break the same record.
Very Happy Pig is bald!
