New Delhi: The sheep farm of Pip Simpson, a farmer based in Cumbria, UK, has turned into a hot tourist spot after he tangoed his entire flock with bright orange paint to prevent them from being stolen.

Pet theft is a massive problem in north-west England and farmer Pip is one of the victim of this rural crime. About 300 of his sheep were taken away in the past four years.

But, now his non-toxic tango-ing trick is working wonders. The 50-year-old puts his flock of 800 sheep through a bright orange paint to make them stand-out and less prone from being pinched.

The eye-catching orange color is long lasting and can be easily spotted from a distance and also helps farmer to keep a guard over his flock.
