Tesco is a large supermarket chain: "Tesco has told farmers, who supply the supermarket giant with lamb, to stop using the dogs unless they can be retrained to be "more considerate" towards the flock. ... Tesco was adamant that one of its largest suppliers in New Zealand, Silver Fern Farms in Fairton, should stop using dogs to herd sheep into the abattoir. ... The supermarket wants the shepherds to wave their arms, beat sticks or wave flags, to move the sheep into the abattoir." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/agriculture/farming/5100025/New-Zealand-shepherds-stop-using-dogs-as-stresses-lambs.html Oh it’s true!

Is it true that in New Zealand people herd sheep? Or are you saying some legislation has proposed this change? The story paragraph about humans being used as herders is the funniest to me.
