Sheep aren't stupid they just hate new things. A lot. Also goats don't actually try to eat everything unless suffering from starvation or malnutrition.

Palestinians say Israel’s announcement of renewing water supply to southern Gaza is a ‘publicity stunt,’ as many water pipes were damaged in the Israeli shelling. Also, without electricity, water pumps to fill the tanks are not working.

I was a campus antiwar protestor in Oct. 2001 when a NYC ethicist came to campus and told me that he disapproved of the activism because "we could smell the bodies burning for weeks." His treatment of that emotive argument as a moral truth was formative for my politics, and this is exactly why.
