Today we have a (Elara-has-had-too-much-coffee-and-dirt) podcast interview with Andrew Conroy, B.S., M.S., PhD, who is a two-time Fulbright Scholar, professor at the University of New Hampshire, and man who can claim way too many other accomplishments to mention here.
Dr. Conroy has wrote the book on oxen (Really. He wrote more than one, and you can follow the link below to buy them for yourself). On more than one continent, he is the guy that everyone mentions when someone wants to know more about how to hitch draft animals up to do something.
Please join Elara and Dr. Conroy as they talk about the good doctor’s journey through a life in oxenland, and the joys of different breeds and places. You’ll have to imagine them surrounded by shady green pastures, with two curious Kerry Cattle and a very energetic young dog providing the background excitement.
