Abstract
The slinging of sheep is a commonly reported, yet poorly described procedure, which is useful for the advancement of veterinary and medical preclinical research. We have described a novel, flexible and repeatable method of suspending sheep to varying degrees while not affecting mobility and thereby improving animal husbandry and welfare.
