In an incident that is certainly bound to make you feel gross, a 23-year-old college student was allegedly caught copulating with a sheep early Tuesday morning at a campus barn in California, according to police officials, who added that the student was under the influence of alcohol.
The reason for such illicit behavior, you wonder? The unidentified computer engineering student was attempting to "relieve stress" over his final exams, Breitbart reported.
Around 3 a.m. on Tuesday, the Fresno State student was discovered sexually assaulting a sheep by a passerby since the 23-year-old was making a little too much noise.
Housed inside the school's agriculture department barns, the sheep are meant to be used for breeding purposes, Marisa Burkdoll, whose job it is to take care of the animals at the sheep unit, said.
"It's just kind of disgusting and revolting and personally makes me angry, I mean why would you do that?" she told KFSN, expressing disgust over the incident and calling for the accused student to be thrown into jail.
But the student was released after reportedly being apprehended and charged with sexual assault of an animal, according to KFSN.
Unfortunately for the 23-year-old, news of the incident quickly spread on social media, even inspiring the creation of an online parody Twitter account @FresnoStSheep, with an image of a sheep and the following description: "Victim of on-campus sexual assault. Demanding justice. Foodie. Starbucks addict. T-swizzle4Life."
The parody account has become a place for students of the university to express shock and crack jokes about the incident, with some calling for the suspect's expulsion, according to UK MailOnline.
The hashtag #BaaaMeansBaaa has also resulted in some responsive tweets from users who were made aware of the incident:
Meanwhile, the sheep was receiving treatment from veterinarians, campus officials said.
