World's Oldest Sheep Falls Off Cliff and Dies

A 25-year-old ewe named Methuselina was found at the bottom of a cliff in Scotland this morning, where it is believed to have fell off and died. Since the death of the previous longest-living sheep, Lucky, who died at the age of 23 due to a heatwave in Australia, Guinness World Records has been searching for a new holder of the title. Unfortunataly, they found this one a little too late.
