Return Of The Wooly Mammoths To Maryland

Better two dogs playing chase in the snow than a lamb and a goat kid playing chase in the kitchen because it is too darn nasty to take them out side for exercise.
I thought we were bad when we kept a 9 month old pot belly in the kitchen for 3 months to get him over his abuse before we got him. Glad to see someone else as… ummm… unique(?) as my wife and I are.
Your hubby and you are taking this role playing a bit too far …
I already lost a goat kid and a lamb to this freezing weather. The 10F and snow is not so bad, it is the 33F sleet and freezing rain that kills. Without attentive moms to protect them, the abandoned will get kicked out of my run-in shelters.
We do have an enclosed sheltered area I was putting the doeling in with the rest of the does and young kids but she will have none of it. She is now fast enough to scoot back out the door and getting too fast and too heavy to chase and catch. We have a play area for them that they spend the day in if it would ever quit raining and sleeting and snowing.
The lamb is only about ten days old and the doeling has adopted him so it is simplest just to keep them together. If spring ever comes they are both outside for good. Then I will have to convince them they are not people.

Believe me I have dumped many a newborn into hot water and revived them. Then you have an irate soggy wet goat to dry off with a hairdryer. Goats HATE water. They are worse than my cats.
I thought of you when I read that article. 🙂
Yes, indeed. I have done the same, dunking baby lambies in water warmed on the wood stove so they come back alive after being buried in snow and ice.
Of course, they stay inside afterwards and become like pet dogs! Years later, will continue to follow me around the farm just like the pooches.
Did I misunderstand your first post? I thought you and your husband were the lamb and the goat kid playing chase in the kitchen. Either way, I hope you let him into the kitchen and don’t loose him to the weather. 🙂
Actually Colorado they are both FINALLY outside today playing in the 43F weather.
Looks like they’re not having any fun at all…
Nooo…they just don’t know what that white stuff is….
My Springer Rollie, lives for snow but here in NE Oregon we’ve had very little for the “abominable Snow Springer.”
PETA called. You are now under investigation for Woolly Mammoth abuse. They were not amused.
Steve,
Just ran across this: Lawsuit: Purina Beneful dog food poisoning, killing thousands of pets
I feed them only organic food which I cook myself.
Of course, you taste it first, too, right?
Glad to hear that. (I am also warning your readers.)
What exactly is “inorganic food”?
in·or·gan·ic ˌinôrˈɡanik/ adjective 1. not consisting of or deriving from living matter.
without organized physical structure.
2. of, relating to, or denoting compounds that are not organic (broadly, compounds not containing carbon).
Is it anything like “carbon pollution”? 😉
No I think it refers to the propylene glycol added to purina’s dog food. /sarc
(Although technically propylene glycol is an organic chemical.)
Because before they were domesticated, canines used to be able to cook for themselves …
Nah, they just hung around the camp fire….

Those mammoths should keep the returning saber-toothed cats at bay. Whew!
The “Cold War” isn’t over, and you are always trying to one-up the Russians…
“Russia’s expansive arctic permafrost make it an ideal place to find the preserved remains of long extinct animals. Recently added to the list of discoveries is the relatively intact carcass of a baby woolly rhino from the Pleistocene epoch.
Although perhaps not as common to hear about compared to woolly mammoths, according to the International Rhino Foundation, woolly rhino fossils and remains have been found in Europe and Asia. Like the mammoths, woolly rhinos were hunted by early humans as depicted in cave drawings in France.”
