Synopsis

Cows are as varied as people. They can be highly intelligent or slow to understand; vain, considerate, proud, shy or inventive. Although much of a cow's day is spent eating, they always find time for extracurricular activities such as babysitting, playing hide and seek, blackberry picking or fighting a tree. This is an affectionate record of a hitherto secret world.

From the Publisher:

We should like to draw attention to Rosamund Young's video and DVD, Secret Life of the Farm, which effectively illustrates many of the issues and scenes described in the book. Rosamund spent five years recording the scenes and it is she who provides the commentary herself. Enjoy the glimpses into the ordinary everyday lives of cattle, sheep, hens and wildlife on her Worcestershire farm. You will see them actively making choices, expressing preferences, forming lifelong friendships, playing tag and seeking out plants for their medicinal benefits. A must for anyone who has ever considered the concept of animal sentience.
