I can’t believe that shrek didn’t get a habit cut in 6 years. I think it’s also really cool how he was so small after they cut his hair and they could make 20 men’s suits.

# data[].attributes.body
Talk about a rebel! Shrek avoided shearing for SIX WHOLE LONG YEARS! I wonder how many feet long all of his wool was. It sure looked like at least a foot"

# data[].attributes.body
That sheeps wool was huge! I wonder how it survived six years in a cave

# data[].attributes.body
That is cool! I love sheep, so this was very interesting to me. I wonder how Shrek the Fluff Master ate and drank?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder why he didn’t want to be sheared and why he his for 6 YEARS?

# data[].attributes.body
It's amazing how he figured out if I hide in a cave I won't get sheared. I wonder he did it on purpose.

# data[].attributes.body
Wow 😮 I don’ t
Like haircuts but I will do it every once in a while.

# data[].attributes.body
That was so cool! I wonder what he ate. Honestly, I did not think a domesticated sheep would eb able to live that long in the wild without its every day food from its owner. Also, how long would he be able to live if he wasn’t found. Is there a world record for sheep wool

# data[].attributes.body
I can't believe that Shrek made enough will to make 20 men's suits.I wonder how he survived Six years in a cave. I wonder what he ate during that time.

# data[].attributes.body
So if Shrek was gone for six years how long can he live after them. Also I wonder if Shrek was home to any small creatures because the fu
was really big.

# data[].attributes.body
How did the sheep escape his owner and get to the caves with out being seen

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder how shrek did get a heat stroke during the sum,er under all that fur. I also wonder how many pounds of wool he had on him.

# data[].attributes.body
First of all that is one body full of wool! He was so much smaller once all the wool was removed. I wonder if he was scared or just didnt like people touching his wool.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm curious about why sheep's wool grow. It would seem like something like an organ would produce wool or some sort of growth is on them. However sheep get their wool, they're still awesome.

# data[].attributes.body
If he was in a cave for six years, I wonder what he would eat. I also wonder how they got all that grime out of the wool.

# data[].attributes.body
Wow!  I wonder how long it took to get all that wool off? Also how did he survive there in the cave

# data[].attributes.body
What did he eat? IS ANY OF HIS WOOL IN ONE OF MY SWEATERS?!?!??!!!!!?

# data[].attributes.body
I felt bad when I saw the first pictures when he so much wool on him, but when I saw the picture of when Shrek was all sheered I felt relieved. I can’t even imagine having all of that wool on me. I wonder what Shrek was feeling like for 6 years. Was he hot? Could he walk? Could he see?

# data[].attributes.body
Whoa talk about a rebel. That’s why you do things even if you don’t like it for your own good. I wonder how many blankets you could make from shreck.

# data[].attributes.body
That was cool. I wonder how he survived so long? What about 12 years? 24?

# data[].attributes.body
That is incredible,

# data[].attributes.body
That is incredible! I wonder how he was able to eat if the wool keep him from moving easily. I am also curious to know what made Shrek finally decided to come home and have his wool sheared off.

# data[].attributes.body
I’m not sure what happened previously in this because I wasn’t here, but obviously something happened, because that sheep was not in good shape. It must’ve gotten really inconvenient living like that. I wonder the temperature under all that wool?

# data[].attributes.body
That is awkward but cool,it kind of creeps me out🤢. I can see why he is a libertarian, he never managed to be sheared so he hid in a cave. What would he eat? Were there any predators?

# data[].attributes.body
Wow. I wonder what would happen if he stayed longer than 6 years. I also wonder how he was protected from

# data[].attributes.body
I think that this is amazing how a sheep can grow there wool so long. I wonder how he kept his balance and ate.

# data[].attributes.body
What did he eat?

# data[].attributes.body
That’s amazing. I want to hug him so bad. I wonder how much wool they get each year. Because that was for six years.

# data[].attributes.body
That is crazy! How could a sheep know that he could hide in a cave? I wonder how much wool he had produced? I wonder how he was able to get food and water?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if Shrek broke some world records if he didn't how big was THE SHEEP THAT DID?! I wonder how long he could have gone without being sheared? (Is that how you spell it?)

# data[].attributes.body
Shred looks actually really cut. I wonder how he managed to find all the food, if he was on a grassy mountain or just a cave by land. He must of eaten so much to gain all the wool. I also wonder how long he could have gone without being sheared, or if he could’ve died from heat.

# data[].attributes.body
That was weirdest thing I’ve ever seen. I wonder why they’ve evolved like that maybe because they knew that were being sheared they evolved to think I

# data[].attributes.body
This is amazing I didn’t know that only domestic sheep's wool  keeps gro and growing.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the best sheep. I want to hug the sheep so bad. How did he bend down and eat if he can’t even walk that easily? And ten men’s suits, wow! It looks like there is a foot for the width.

# data[].attributes.body
This is insane! If he hid in a cave for six years how did he eat? Would he come out and find food then retreat back to his cave of no hair cuts? Did he run away from his farm (or wherever he lived) and hid in his cave or did he just not shed

Meet Shrek - The Renegade Sheep That Avoided Shearing For Six Years By Hiding In A Cave

This is Shrek, the appropriately-named renegade sheep that escaped and avoided shearing for SIX long years.

modern farmer

Shrek really, really, really did not like getting his hair cut. So for six years, this New Zealand libertarian managed to avoid spring shearings by hiding in a cave.

By the time he was found in 2004, his owners couldn't even tell he was a sheep.

modern farmer

According to modern farmer, when Shrek was eventually sheared, there was enough wool to produce 20 men's suits.

So if a sheep does not get sheared, will the wool keep growing and growing?

Yes, but only if it is a domesticated sheep. They've evolved based on the way humans groom them. Primitive sheep, like Bighorns in the West, still shed most of their wool every year.

Perhaps Shrek realized he needed help (heat stress, mobility issues, vision impairment) and wanted to be found. We may never know, but he's certainly got a great smile!
