Dear Curiosity Journal,

Pearly, our ewe who was bred, but did not get pregnant, seems to be fostering the Jacobs lambs. I’ve noticed that she is near them the most, baahs for them when they are separated from the group and nudges them out of the way when the goats get feisty. Today I looked over and saw them all snuggled up together, resting their heads on each other’s backs. It was the sweetest! I’m happy to see her taking some motherly initiative because these little babies need some guidance. They don’t exactly subscribe to our fencing system and frequently escape. Help us, Pearly.
