Meet Shep, the world’s first drone sheepdog

We all remember what happened when a pig thought it was a sheepdog. Well, it turns out pigs may not be the biggest threat to a sheepdog’s career.

A farmer in Ireland replaced his four-legged friends with Shep — the world’s first drone sheepdog.

Footage from Shep shows how the drone is able to successfully herd the sheep across a field and through a narrow gate.

Drones have many potential uses, but we don’t think anyone saw this coming.
