De dieren uit de tijd dat De Zonnegloed nog enkel een educatieve kinderboerderij was, blijven natuurlijk ook op De Zonnegloed wonen.    Joske is ook een dier die hier al van in dat prille begin aanwezig was voordat we een Sanctuary werden.

Where does he feel most at home?

Named after the island Ouessant, an island in the Atlantic ocean, off the coast of Brittany where they originally come from.

What's his favourite food?

Sheep are ruminants and as long as there is grass, they’ll eat grass. But they’ll also eat herbs, leaves and twigs.

Fun fact

The Ouessant sheep is one of the smallest sheep breeds (if not the smallest) of the world.
