cattle breed highlight - afrikaner !

ahh the afrikaner... one of my favourite shapes!!! look at how ROUND those fellows are!!

afrikaners are, if u can believe it, a type of sanga cattle(cattle indigenous to africa)! theyre often crossbred with taurine(european) breeds to improve heat resistance, and apparently make awesome mothers!

please help if you can!

Some people go to bed unsure if morning will ever come.

In Gaza today, people are running after food dropped from the sky. They're slapping their hands on aid bags, as if every bite could be their last And instead of the world taking action, the response was clear: Israel is now considering occupying all of Gaza. Not a ceasefire. Not a humanitarian corridor. Occupation

please help if you can!

Netanyahu is now admitting what the intention was all along, the complete takeover of Gaza. Displaced people are already forced into only 25% of Gaza, and now Israel wants to reduce it to 0%. The Israeli settler-colonial project can only be complete through the genocide of Palestinians. They have been destroying infrastructure, killing the environment, killing the people, starving the children.

I can’t tell you how much I love this artwork from ancient Egypt (the Middle Kingdom). People have been raising cattle and practicing animal husbandry for so long, that there is something almost inherently human about this scene.

Everyone in the field of veterinary medicine or agriculture knows the feeling of staying up late with a laboring animal trying to make sure both mom and baby are okay. Delivering a calf is often physically and emotionally exhausting work that takes enormous patience and learned skill. It requires a unique balance of physical strength and gentleness to do correctly. There is no feeling quite like getting that baby out and everyone is okay. I’m certain ancient people must have felt the same way, and I wonder if the artist knew this feeling firsthand. I wonder if those humans depicted were people the artist knew, if the cow and calf maybe were as well.
