Long Live Creatures!

Hello.

I went to a fishing pond and a ranch with the children.

The photo above shows the kid goats siblings at Zao Heartland (ranch).

There was a sign saying they were born on July 26, and since there was no one inside the fence, these released kids are probably those kid goats.

I love this feeling of freedom.

The mother goat, wanting to be petted, came close to me panting, and I arrogantly thought, "Oh, does she know I'm a good person?" but later I realized she was just hot and wanted shade.

Goat eyes show no sign of fighting, and watching them makes me feel at ease.

Their ears are big and cute.

Someday, I want to make masking tape with goats. Yes.

At the fishing pond, we caught six char, one yamame trout, two rainbow trout, and one silver salmon, and we grilled and ate them all.

"Just catching fish is disrespectful to them. If you catch them, be grateful and eat them."

When I said that, at first they tried hard to catch fish because they wanted to fish, but after tasting them, they were so delicious that their motivation changed to wanting to catch fish because they wanted to eat them.

I was very happy that they came to understand the taste of river fish.

Stray cats and herons kept coming nonstop, aiming for the juvenile fish in the fish farm.

The stray cats seemed experienced, and at least three of them were stealing fish.

I wonder if the shop staff tacitly allow it?

I love this feeling of freedom.

Interacting with creatures in a way different from zoos and aquariums was very satisfying for me too♪
