Today, I found a book about the large animals in the countryside that may have been endangered.
I saw a rabbit and a fox, but no deer. I realized to go and visit the local farm to learn more about it. The farmer explained that there are many species of cattle on his farm, as well as chickens. He also mentioned that he grows wheat for sale.
I went back to the farm and met with the owner, who told me he had a herd of cows and sheep. He showed me around the barn and let me pet a pig. I learned a lot about farming from this visit, including how they raise their animals for food. The farmer also mentioned that he has plans to expand his farm in the future.
