Watch as a massive herd of sheep takes over a road in Utah national forest

A massive herd of livestock was caught on camera flooding a Utah roadway.

Hundreds of furry sheep were seen in an Oct. 3 video passing along a road in Utah’s Manti-La Sal National Forest, the U.S. Forest Service posted on Facebook.

“Monday morning traffic jams are the worst,” the post says.

The flock was being herded by people and dogs along the road, according to the agency. Bells could be heard ringing in the background of the video.

“It’s that time of year again where livestock is on the move throughout the forest,” the Forest Service said.

The agency said drivers could slowly move through a flock like this.

“Please make sure to take your time, especially around those blind turns, and be respectful if you come across animals on the road,” the agency said.
