Animal Science II provides a more advanced study of animal husbandry, focusing on larger farm animals such as sheep and goats. Students examine species-specific anatomy and physiology, apply that knowledge to daily care, and engage in responsible breeding practices. Detailed record keeping—tracking vaccinations, births, illnesses, and treatments—is a central component of the course. Students continue developing management skills and explore the role of animal products in both local and broader agricultural markets. The course emphasizes stewardship, accuracy, and leadership within the farm setting.
