We are all going to die of something...old age is not that common anymore. What are the odds a sheep makes it to this stage?

I think this is him.  These pics are from a year ago.  I wondered what made his horns fall apart like this.  Normally rams get old and die without any such horn decline.  The overall physical condition of his body actually doesn't look that bad, compared to some old rams I've seen.  He just may surprise us and live for a couple more years.

was this the ram we discussed last year regarding horn-rot?  I think Pope chimed in and gave some pretty good insight on him (if it's the same ram).
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
