Hi There,
One of my specialist interests is the rare New Zealand feral sheep...there's about 8 small flocks on public land in New Zealand.
Yesterday I went into the mountains behind Christchurch in the vain hope I might get a photograph for an article I'm writing.
The flock has only about 200 animals left.
(Many New Zealanders don't even know about them.)
And I got lucky with the photo...these sheep originate from escapees soon after New Zealand was colonised in the 1800s.
What do you think about the rams in the picture?
