It’s Shaun the Sheep… but like you’ve never seen him before!

This Shaun is believed to be the ‘world’s wooliest sheep‘ and has been on the run for years to avoid getting a haircut!

Named after the CBBC character, Shaun was so desperate to avoid a shearing he was found 25 miles from his old farm!

He’s got so much wool that it’s covering his eyes which made it easy for farmer Peter Hazell to sneak up from behind and finally catch him!

Now Shaun could be set to claim a world record for his woolly antics!

His fleece weighs over 20kg which could be enough to claim the title!

The current record holder is a New Zealander named Shrek who hid in caves for six years before eventually being found!
