The Owl! Interesting situation!

Shepherds in the Pyranees raise Great Pyranees puppies with the sheep so that they look at themselves as part of the flock and defend the flocks against wolves.

Could you raise an orphan owl to consider itself as part of the flock and that would provide still have enough inate "Owlness" to provide some protection against predators like weasels and rats? Humm. There is a Video of Chicken who fostered a Pecock egg and the peacock and foster mother still hang around together. Might be an interesting experiment!

Something about High Fat Cheese and Brain health. Posted an article about this earlier (Or maybe C.M. did?) but a bit more information here:

Note that If you pasturize your milk it destroys the Vitamin K....Europe uses grass fed Cows raw milk for many cheeses like Parmesean and they contain Vitamin K!
