Dacă eşti atent la lumea înconjurătoare, este posibil să ai parte de suprize prin cunoaştere. După aceea. Cum mi s-a întâmplat mie. Am fost în călătorie în Norvegia. Am fost cazaţi la Oystese, mai sus de Norheimsund. Am locuit 3 nopţi la un norvegian tare muncitor. Era un complex de locuinţe acolo. Într-un din case erau crescute oi. Acasă am aflat, dintr-un film Slow Food că oile pe care le-am văzut erau de fapt o specie foarte veche, cea mai veche din Norvegia, de la anul 1000.
In casuta din dreapta sunt crescute oile |
Cum se uita oile la noi |
Sunt serioase si la locul lor |

Şi o explicaţie dintr-un blog: "The Old Norwegian sheep breed (gammelnorsk spælsau) has survived since the 1000s, and is the most primitive sheep breed in Norway. It is a descendant of one of the oldest sheep breeds in the world, recorded in Europe as far back as 1000BC. In Norway the sheep have many other names such as villsau (wild sheep), just spælsau and Norsk korthalesauen (the Norwegian Landrace – short tail). Up until the 1800s it was the most common breed in Norway. By the 1960s they were almost extinct and efforts were made to rescue the breed. Today there are around 10,000 Viking sheep in Norway and we are happy to join other farmers in preserving this heritage breed. Viking sheep are perfectly suited to their Norwegian environment. They are small and agile for the Norwegian terrain and have fabulous thick coats for outside Winter conditions. They shed their wool, eat almost anything that takes their fancy – juniper, herbs, scrubs, bark and rowen tree branches – have a great herding instinct and rarely get caught by predators. They protect their young and weak by encouraging predators to go after the stronger faster members of the flock so the others can have time to run and hide. Viking sheep have certainly earnt their place in the Arctic."
