Our Farm Animal Family

Here at the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary we have a small collection of animals who are very pleased to meet you down at the farm. Why not come and say hello?

Goats – Domesticated by humans from wild goats in South-west Asia and Eastern Europe, there are around 210 named breeds of domestic goat. Ours are classified as Pygmy goats.

Pigs – Pigs were domesticated many thousands of years BC in Asia and brought across to Europe in the 18th Century. There are hundreds of different breeds of domestic pig and our two sweet girls are classified as Pot-bellied pigs.

Rabbits – Our domestic rabbit is Giant European.

Henri, Bambi & Angus, Muffin & Bella

Species: African Pygmy Goats

These five are bundles of mischievous trouble (four males with Bella being the only female)! They enjoy climbing, browsing and engaging with the visiting public. Their favourite food is fresh willow shoots and specially prepared grain mix.
