As I was driving through the countryside on Saturday I spotted that a sheep was on its back in the middle of a field, wildly waving its legs in the air but unable to right itself.
My more rurally knowledgeable wife assured me that this was very dangerous to the sheep and that left in that state it would die - so I have to hop the fence and turn it right side up again.
The question is though - how did it get onto its back in the first place?

They don't.

A vengeful turtle did it.

Apparently in that configuration it is called an "n" (a u on its back)

If I remember correctly it's called a riggwelter.
