Why has the Suffolk Punch been removed from the home badge image? on 20:21 - Mar 3 by Swansea_Blue
I was mansplaining this to my kids when we were in the Black Mountains last week. We had cracking views across the brown hills with the patchwork of green fields in between. I was telling them how even though the hills may look more ‘natural’, all of the landscape was altered from how it would have been without humans. They weren’t impressed!
This talk reminds me of this, which was one of our core texts in my geography degree:
The Hoskins book is a classic - a more modern and accessible book is Mary-Ann Ochota's - Hidden Histories - A Spotter's Guide to the British Landscape - definitely more kid friendly as well!
I think it would be great if the club worked with the Suffolk Punch Trust to highlight the breed. While they aren't a wild animal they are an important part of Suffolk's heritage that is in danger of slipping away.
