The Loneliest Sheep
Fiona, known as Britain's loneliest sheep, was discovered at the base of a remote 250-metre cliff in Scotland where she had been stranded for at least two years. In November 2023, a brave group of five farmers used a winch and a special hammock to rescue her. Because she hadn't been shorn in years, Fiona's fleece was massive and weighed 9 kilograms! After her rescue, she was finally given a haircut and moved to a cozy new home at a farm park. Learn more!

Fiona was hiding at the very bottom of a giant cliff. If you are standing at the top of the cliff looking down at Fiona, is she below you or behind you?
Little Kids
A group of people made a chart of Fiona's favorite foods. 8 people voted for grass and 3 people voted for clover. How many more people voted for grass than clover?
Big Kids
Fiona's wool was sold to help other animals. If a small bag of her wool costs 5 dollars and a large bag costs 8 dollars, how much would it cost to buy one of each? If you paid with a 20-dollar bill, how much change would you get back?
