'CAST SHEEP' 'Cast sheep' is an old English shepherd's term for

a sheep that has turned over on its back

Cast down is a mental state.Ps.42:5-6

Cast sheep is both mental and physical state.

A sheep cannot get up by itself - a pathetic sight

A vigilant shepherd restores such ones.

He always counts to find out cast sheep

How does it

happens? Three following ways it can happen:

Search for a 'soft spot' - search for comfort

Heavy wool depots

Over-fat sheep

SEARCH FOR A SOFT SPOT -

love for worldly comfort

Sheep prefer to lie down in some little hollow

or depression

Suddenly the centre of gravity shifts.

It struggles in panic and that leads to build up

gases in the rumen

Rumen expands and cut off blood circulation

to extremities mainly to legs
