Fuzzy Wuzzy was a sheep, definitely not a bear.

I'm wondering if these are the same photogenic sheep Don has used before...

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Great tones and detail seen on the light colored sheep. Try, try as I might and having stared at this a long time I cannot make a connection to something Halloween, sinster, or spooky. Now I did mention that the light colored sheep have great tones and detail but their 'seems' to be a black sheep in the mix but it gets lost/blends in the dark tones of the ground on either side of it. Perhaps the sacrifice is the black sheep....the black sheep of the family? Not sure.

I am missing the connection... sheep milling around don't really scare me or elicite an automatic relationship to sacrifice, sorry.
