I guess so , they've got very dense fur on their bodies , you don't ever get the chance to stroke them though except road kills and I've never tried stroking road kill , if you see one in the wild they kind of look like very small sheep as they run away .

Great, just great! I do hope everyone, including livestock were safe. If arson, may they find that bastard and drop him down a deep dark hole for eternity!

It's crazy how we were just talking about the farm, and then that happens! :shock: :shock: I bet it was those damn badgers! :x :lol: But seriously though, I'm glad everyone is safe like you said. That could have easily gone sideways real quick.

It's mid winter now , if it had been summer it would have been a lot lot worse , the stables are right next to the barn it's a miracle it was saved and the horses are fine ,could have been a very different story , four hay barns have burnt down locally this winter , one was proven arson so its highly likely they all were .

Let's hope that the remaining stables/barns put up security cameras and catch this arsewipe.

I was sitting here a half an hour ago (2:30am) when I heard a weird animal noise coming from outside I've never heard before. I didn't feel like getting up to investigate so instead I looked up what I guessed it could be, and I was right. It was a red fox.

Here's the noise:

Would've never guessed that was a fox call. Red fox are rare to see in my parts, but there's plenty of them around. Well the ones that have avoided coyotes anyways. The coyotes will kill them if found in their territory.
