I spent most of my childhood and teenage years on my parent's farm. We had chickens, turkeys, geese, pigs, goats, horses, sheep and for a while there, we had a cow. We also had about 20 barn cats because there are always lots of mice on a farm. I have some nice memories of being a kid, but for the most part...things were not good.

The only two other animals I've seen were the Arctic Fox and the Raven. ...
