The Ominvores Dilemma: Young Readers Edition

There are two versions of this book. The Young Readers Edition is what we use, but the questions are from the original version. The questions are still relevant, but you will have to format them.

The Joys of Keeping Farm Animal

I do not teach Livestock Production, but if you look the book up on the internet it will give you good resources and handouts that go along with the book.

I do use the resource cheat sheet and fast facts.
