Dr Heinz Strobel, the contributor of a much-loved image from the book, sadly died a month ago. His beautiful image of a shepherd standing calmly in the snow was part of the inspiration for this project. We send our thoughts and sympathies to his family and friends. @Moreduncomms

Definitely a wintry feel in today’s image! Here's an image from the book to say thank you to everyone who has braved the cold, stormy and snowy weather this weekend to care for animals. Thank you to Judith Charnley for the image of her husband Tom. @Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms
Thanks to Ken Pettey & Pertti Hankonen for this contribution to the book! The Grey Finnish Landrace sheep seemed extinct until some were found in Kainuu in mid 1980s. A breeding programme began and there are now more than 1000 Kainuunharmas sheep. @Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms
As the ISVA virtual meeting concludes, let's enjoy a beautiful image from Javier Moreno Vargas and A.N.C.O.S of Seguereño sheep grazing among almond trees in south-eastern Spain. Find the image and text on page 19 of the book! #congresoSEOC2021@Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms

Look! A queue of sheep rushing to order their copy of "The World of Sheep and Goats" from https://t.co/fq7No9EtEB!
Thanks to Snorre Stuen for his great photo of sheep on summer pasture in the Norwegian mountains. @Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms
It's Monday evening-let's have a lovely picture from the book! Thanks to Amanda Carson @Herdwickewe for this great image. Her text reminds us that pastoral process of sheep farming in the Lake District is truly ancient, emerging over 5000 years ago. @Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms
Another contribution with an important message. Mário Balaro's @uff_br image and text show how sheep and goats can survive harsh conditions in Brazil's Ceará State, helping the local community, alleviating poverty and achieving WHO’s Millennium goals.

🤔Perhaps we don't need to start a big pre-Christmas advertising campaign for the book after all? Let's just look at its pictures and stories instead! Here's one from Roy Butler in which he describes a fascinating market day in the Linxia Market, China. @Sheepvetsoc@Moreduncomms
