Old MacDonald Had a Farm

I've been a city girl my entire life. But if I were given acres of land on which I could raise a farm of animals, I would probably take them up on that offer.

But of course this is me we're talking about so my farm would include some of my favorite animals...most of which you probably wouldn't find on your normal farm.

I absolutely love alpacas! I mean they are just so fuzzy and their faces are so cute! They look like they would be totally cool if you went up to them and give gave them a big ol' hug.

I love owls so much. Besides being amazingly smart animals they are insanely cute and will even deliver your Hogwarts letter to you.

Have you ever seen a giraffe drink water? It is the cutest most hilarious thing ever. Because they are so tall they have to splay their legs and dip their necks way down. Besides this occasional ungracefulness I think under normal circumstances they are just majestic creatures.

If it were possible to pet a porcupine, we'd probably have one as a pet. I think they are the cutest little animals! They have their cute little faces and they waddle around. Did you know that porcupines are good swimmers? Their quills are hollow so they float pretty well.

Besides the fact that baby camels look like little fluffy alpacas, camels are very versatile, hardy animals. There's a reason they are the ones who cross the desert carrying most of the luggage.

Highland cows are FURRY COWS that live in Scotland. Just another reason I have to visit.




I think by now you can see a definite trend on this list. I love anything furry, bushy, or fluffy. These aren't even all of the animals I would want on my farm. I haven't delved into the water animals (beluga whales, penguins, manatees) or some specific types of animals like Pulis (dog). But maybe that is for another picture post.

If you had a farm what are some of the animals you'd let roam around?
