A sheep lives on a sheep ranch somewhere in the American West. He loves to dance, and his graceful dancing makes him popular with all the other animals. Unfortunately, one day the young sheep is taken away and shorn of all his wool. The young sheep, who is laughed at by all the other animals, loses his confidence and can no longer dance. That is, until a friendly jackalope gives the sheep a pep talk.

Then a literal beam of light from the sun heralds the arrival of the jackalope.
