Sutra – shown here on a stroll with calf Mila – came to Fields of Freedom together with Buddha and Karma. All three of them were just one year old.

They had all been rescued from a lamb farm when a worker at the farm had grown close to them. All of them had been orphaned as lambs when their mothers had been sent to the slaughterhouse.

The kind-hearted farm worker could not bear the thought of them ending up as lamb meat so she brought them home with her. But she couldn’t keep them, and again the three lambs’ lives were in danger. Fields of Freedom was contacted and asked if we could take all of them together – as they had become close friends – and give them a loving and caring forever home.

Sutra is the most confident of all the five rescue sheep we have here at the sanctuary – she is always the first sheep over to meet and greet newcomers and she is the fastest runner of all of the sheep.
