Most likely it is because it is common for large numbers of sheep and other livestock to be left outside during a thunderstorm.
Yes, it is possible to be struck by lightning while holding something made of rubber.

No, wearing a magnet necklace will not attract lightning. Lightning is attracted to taller objects and objects that conduct electricity, not magnets. It is always safest to seek shelter during a thunderstorm to avoid being struck by lightning.
