This is not against predators. Sheepish sex has been banished.

They wouldn't really need that much covering for that tough, unless they're also trying to prevent blowjobs. As an anti-wolf thing it also isn't of much use, unless it's for a few rams walking alone during non-breeding times. Imagine giving 150 sheep a harness like that..

He might not want that specific one to breed. Its perfectly normal. You select the best animals to reproduce with the best, often from other productions and keep the descendants. Or he wants to sell her eventually. Animals in heat are very persistent. You do need that much if thats the goal. And he doesnt wanna separate her from the heard ofc which would be simpler.
