Many thanks to Ernie and Jane Somerville for allowing us to visit their Donkey Sanctuary in Belleek, Co.Fermanagh. It was an extremely interesting and informative afternoon. Click here for information on Ardville Stud.
Please view the clip below which is about Ireland's main donkey sanctuary in Cork.
This short video clearly outlines the digestive system of the cow and describes the function of the rumen in the process. Using animation (projected on a cow) the presenter makes it immediately easier to understand the differences between the ruminant and the mongastric.
This is a video of Zoonotic Disease common to both Canines and Felines. Please take note of three different methods of transmission.
