Ever wonder how the youngest lambs get down the hill? Wonder no more.
Donkey & mule nannies are used in Italy when grazing animals are moved from high pastures down to the plains. Newborn lambs are unable to make the journey on their own.
They ride in pouches of a specially made saddle on the back of a nanny.
At rest stops lambs are returned to their mothers for a meal & some nuzzling.

I love this image, but all I can think of is a lamb bleating “Shotgun!”
But of course!
I have wondered that on waking every morning for years. Thank you. Now I can wake up and think about other things – like how they get the peanuts inside the M&Ms. Weird.
So, you’re saying they’re identifying as marsupials?
(Ducking!)
YNnB, my first thought was that somewhere there is a trans activist trying desperately to find something offensive about this.
