Answer: How Many Sheep Are at the Shearing Day?

The Answer

The correct answer is: 14 real sheep and lambs.

Here is why

  1. Four real sheep stand in the left pen.
  2. Four more appear around the trough and shearing area in the center.
  3. Six real sheep and lambs occupy the right pen and gate area.
  4. Four plus four plus six gives 14. The three flat pictures on the sacks do not count.

Why people miss it

The printed sack pictures resemble side-view sheep, while several real animals overlap the rails and one another.
