A Rare Breeds Album of American Livestock
Author: Carolyn Christman
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Seventy breeds of livestock in America are rare. What would happen if these breeds of asses, cattle, goats, horses, pigs, and sheep were to become extinct? Agriculture will have lost the genetic resources necessary to adapt to changes in the environment and human needs. A link in the Earth's biodiversity will have been broken. And people in the future will be deprived of the flash of a Spanish Mustang in the misty morning, the rich pallette of colors in a flock of Navajo-Churro sheep, and the gentle lowing of a Cracker cow to her newborn calf. If rare breeds are lost, the animal kingdom and the human experience will be diminished forever. This book shows what is at stake -- the breed diversity that is our natural heritage and cultural inheritance. Learn how rare breeds are being protected and how you can become a part of this unique conservation effort.
