Damian Aspinall = amazing!

'In an ideal world, Aspinall would empty both his wildlife parks and return every animal to the wild. ‘The ultimate aim would be to send back all the animals that aren’t truly endangered,’ he says. ‘But some species — like black rhino — need protecting at the moment. If we can protect animals in the wild properly, then there’s no need for zoos. That’s got to be the ultimate aim. But that’s a 30-year dream.’

Slaugher - the S?

I cant imagine laughter on kill day.

I'm fairly new to slaughtering and butchering pigs, only having raised 5 myself...but what a solemn day it is. May I never take the S out of slaughter. so

Grandpop

He would have been 100 today.

Certainly missed.

I know where my love of animals and farming comes from!

Old family farm in Wisconsin, built in 1904 by my greatgrandmother and her 2 sisters.
