Pembrokeshire attraction - Folly Farm houses many adorable animals across its impressive farm and zoo - from giraffes, penguins and sloths, to pigs, donkeys and everything in-between. But none are cuter than the adorable orphaned rare breed duo residing in the Jolly Barn.
Ted, an incredibly fluffy seven-week-old Torwen lamb, has bonded with three-month-old Golden Guernsey goat kid ‘Gary’ and have quickly become best buds after they sadly lost their mums shortly after birth.
Both Torwen sheep and Golden Guernsey goats are listed as an ‘at risk’ species on the Rare Breed Survival Trust’s Watchlist.
Folly Farm, located in Begelly, is the first Welsh farm park to achieve rare breeds status from the RBST for its efforts and contribution to conserving rare breeds of livestock. Its paddocks showcase rare breed farm animals from across the UK and particularly champions some of the most amazing Welsh rare breeds, such as Ted the Torwen.
When Ted and Gary became orphaned, the Jolly Farmers quickly stepped in to give this perfect pair the best chance of survival, and have been hand rearing them with regular bottle feeds ever since!
Just like caring for any youngsters, keepers have dedicated their time to providing round-the-clock care.
