Ram on the Run!

Earlier this week, a two-year-old Icelandic ram made international headlines after it chased a cyclist down an Ontario road for more than a kilometer.

The ram, named Ozzy, had snuck out of a nearby farm and was defending his territory against this most peculiar intruder.

Lucky for us, there's footage of the incident.

This black ram chased Thunder Bay, Ont., cyclist Keith Ailey for over a kilometre on Townline Road early in March.

Cyclist Keith Ailey returned to the farm a few days later to meet his challenger, and it looks like they became friends.

The farm has since created an Instagram account for its now-infamous guard sheep.
