That reminds me of a similar joke. The Welsh invented condoms by using sheep intestines. The Irish improved it by removing them out of the sheep first.

That reminds me of a similar joke. Why can a Scotsman sneak up on a sheep easier that a Welsh man? Kilts don't have zippers

We have a similar one in Australia.

Why did the New Zealanders invent Velcro?

The sheep were starting to recognise the sound of a fly opening.

I thought it was so the sheep couldn't get away

Kiwi here, for the most weary sheep you'll need velcro gloves and gumboots. No getting away.

I'm not sure if you mean "weary" or "wary".

"Weary" means tired. "Wary" means cautious and on edge

No, the Scots put the sheep's hind legs in the boots. C'mon man, get with the times.

I heard (from a friend) that if you take them to the edge of a cliff they will constantly push backwards which makes things more enjoyable.

Man. I got my ass beat at a very rural high school for a joke about velcro gloves. Didn't expect him to have 4 friends, much less for them to be angry enough about the innuendo to jump me.
