All about Farm Animals
Farm animals are animals kept by people for food, clothing, labour and companionship. Common farm animals include cows, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens and horses. Each provides something useful, such as milk, eggs, wool or meat.
Farm animals are raised in many different ways, from open fields to large farms. Good farmers make sure animals have food, water, shelter and space, and that they are cared for by a vet when they are unwell.
