"Sissy," a blind 15-year-old horse, is always accompanied by an entourage of five goats and five sheep who guide her to food and water and into her stall, even in blizzards or driving rain. Michelle Feldstein, who runs an animal rescue shelter in Montana, told Reuters.

"They round her up at feeding time and then move aside to make sure she gets to the hay." She marvels at the blind mare and her barnyard attendants.

"There's a magic involved in sheep, goats and a horse becoming best friends," she said. "When you watch them, you have to wonder, why can't people do that?"

“導盲羊群”護盲馬

?????? 據路透社報道，美國蒙大拿州一個動物救護站里有一匹15歲的夸特馬“茜茜”，她雖然雙目失明，但是由五只山羊和五只綿羊組成的“護花團隊”對她呵護有加。羊群一路相伴，會指引她喝水“吃飯”，還會將她送回棚圈，甚至雨雪天氣也不例外。

?????? 經營此動物救護站的米歇爾?費爾德斯坦說：“喂飼料時，羊群會圍在‘茜茜’旁邊，確保她吃上飼料后才退到邊上。”

?????? 她對羊群護盲馬的事很是驚嘆，她說：“山羊、綿羊能和一匹盲馬成為好朋友，這很神奇。當你看到它們的時候，你一定會想，為什么人不能這么做呢？”
