Class for the kids today was learning about the anatomy of sheep and how they are prepared ready for consumption.  They got to see and feel all the gory parts of a sheep’s insides.  Some of the kids were fascinated and some were turned off.  By the third sheep they saw they were used to seeing all the gory bits and felt quite comfortable handling the heart, liver and whatever other parts they were handed.

After learning all about the sheep being cut up, the next day they got to see a wild pig get prepared for the spit roast.

They also got to see a little herd of wild goats being carted off to be sold back in Broken Hill

…and so is the circle of life in the outback.
