What the flock!? Thousands of sheep take over Madrid in annual parade

Description

Thousands of sheep flooded Madrid city centre for the traditional event Fiesta de la Trashumancia. Traffic came to a standstill as sheep were herded around some of the city's most iconic landmarks. Every year since 1994 shepherds have led their herds symbolically following a route that once cut through the undeveloped countryside towards the pastures of southern Spain.
