Head Slapper of the Week

Apparently science research has no bounds.  Eduardo Santurtun of the University of Queensland is conducting research in Australia on the buying questions, "do sheep die of sea-sickness?"   Yes, I know this is paradigm changing stuff, but someone has to do it.   

What was so interesting about this research is to simulate a ship at sea, capital expenditure was needed.

Santurtun couldn't do his research on board a real boat, so his team of researches recreated one in the lab. They've set up a moving crate experiment to test the effects of live export on sheep stress levels." 

You can listen to the news story here.



Baaaaa!!  Three Head Slaps
