“Life on a farm is a school of patience; you can’t hurry the crops or make an ox in two days.”

Henri Alain

What constitutes as a farm animal?

According to Livestocking.com (click for reference):

Farm animals are animals raised or kept primarily for consumption, to generate income and to help with some farm operations. Another name for them is Livestock. The difference between farm animals (FA) and wild animals is that farm animals live among men while wild animals live in the wild, forest, jungle, etc.
