Marijuana can make some people – and sheep -- do crazy things.

A flock of the animals was feared to have gone on a "psychotic rampage" after eating illegally-dumped cannabis plants in the Welsh village of Rhydypandy, The Telegraph reported Wednesday.

"They are getting in people's gardens and one even entered a bungalow and left a mess in the bedroom,” Swansea County Councilor Ioan Richard told the newspaper.

"I dread to think what will happen if they eat what could well be cannabis plants -- we could have an outbreak out of psychotic sheep rampaging through the village,” he said.

Officials said the cannabis remains were cleared, but urged anyone with information to contact South Wales Police.
