Sheep have taken over the Hobbit village from LOTR (pics)
Matamata in New Zealand was the place chosen to film the Hobbiton scenes of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy of movies. After the film was finished the farm upon which the Hobbit village was created asked if some of the hobbit homes could remain to serve as an additional tourist attraction to the area. ...And so it was. However, it does look as if the sheep have discovered a new home and evicted the previous hobbit owners.

1. Fits the quit and 'left' meme.
Although only from a perspective of who the goats and sheep are, based on them being against each other.
