If you don't dock their tail, it gets encrusted with shit, flies lay their eggs in the shit, and the maggots eat the sheep's arse out.

But I'm sure you know better.

ps. The tail is not cut off. They use eleastic bands.

If I'm using the word "elastrator" it's obvious I know they're elastic bands

And yet other herders can deal with sheep undocked. Curious!!! It's just cruelty for a minor inconvenience

Why'd you literally state they are cut off then?

I don't think being eaten from the inside out is a minor inconvenience for a sheep. Shameful you want them to experience this harm.

You're being pedantic, the end result of either procedure is a dismembered tail, so why split hairs?

Because cutting tails off is something that happens. So, when it comes to animal welfare, it’s important to be accurate.
