It's possible, y'know, this little "accident" really was a conspiracy! In one of the books on the theory of the Hundredth Monkey there was an example (can't recall the source, sorry) of sudden new behaviour by sheep in the south of England of escaping across road-gratings (which they couldn't walk on cuz their feet got caught) by lying down and rolling over them (wow!). But the odd part of it was that the same time they learned this trick in the south of England, sheep shortly began doing it in the north of Englad, supporting the philosophic notion of a "morphemic field" in which the new knowledge migrated to the species because at some level they were subscribing to the "field" containing that knowledge.

In the present instance, a rash of "Lambchops' revenge" stories can be anticipated spreading across the range of sheep-eating bipeds, as the species ramps up for justice on the macro-scale!!
