The pilot reported that while mustering sheep on a ridge-top he decided to use the aircraft skid to assist getting a sheep out from a bush. However, the sheep jumped out of the bush and landed on the skid causing the pilot to lose control of the aircraft. The low impact forces did not activate the ELT.
