Description

The Wisdom of Sheep and Other Animals Observations from a Family Farm by Rosamund Young Rosamund Young's life on the farm has been a rich tapestry of joy, discovery, and cooperation with the animals that call it home. With over forty years of experience as an organic farmer, Young has gained a unique insight into the inner lives of farm animals, revealing their individual personalities, complex social bonds, and sometimes heart-wrenching struggles. From the affectionate to the self-sufficient, and from the intelligent to the seemingly 'bird-brained', Young's observations of the animals on her farm are both humorous and poignant. With a deep understanding of the natural world, she shares stories of the wildlife that thrives on her land, and the ways in which the animals interact with each other and their environment. A warm and wise account of life on the farm, The Wisdom of Sheep is a story of the beauty and complexity of the natural world, and the special bond that can form between humans and animals.
