Ariane belongs to the so-called Zackel sheep, which are considered to be very robust and hardy. They originate from the Hungarian Pustza and have been considered endangered since 1903. With a lot of effort and ingenuity, this wonderful breed has been saved for modern times, but the danger is not over yet. In our fast-moving times, Zackel sheep have almost no place. Gery Keszler, the founder and long-time organizer of the Life Ball, recognized the plight of these animals and wanted to help. A small herd lives on his property, which he lovingly looks after. But when this herd became too large, he asked Gut Aiderbichl for help. So Ariane became an Aiderbichler and gave little Alissa the gift of life at Gut Aiderbichl.

Mango2 | Sheep

Every year at Easter, many restaurants like to serve roast lamb. Always eaten with pleasure, but rarely made aware that we are talking about little lambs that are just a few weeks old - children who have just started life full of joy. In Australia, people go so far as to cut off the tails…

Gitte | Sheep

The white mountain sheep Sisi and Franz were confiscated by the veterinary office due to circumstances contrary to animal welfare. The sheep were placed on a farm, but could not stay there for life.

Bonnie, Anne, Ready, Lampi-Lampi and Jim are beautiful Carinthian spectacled sheep and had to be given away by the sheep farmers with a heavy heart. The family had kept sheep for 50 years. The barn and the run were leased. Due to a change of ownership, the lease was terminated and the barn was to…

Lidwina | Sheep

In our fast-moving times, where efficiency and utility are paramount, many breeds have lost their importance. Many of them have been replaced by high-performance breeds and have almost disappeared from the scene. This was also the case with the Zackel sheep, which could only be saved by the efforts of individualists. Lidwina's owner, Gery Keszler,…

Ebeny | Sheep

When this call for help reached us, we couldn't believe our ears or our eyes. On a farm in the Graz area, we discovered an animal farm that was unsurpassed in its cruelty. In the midst of animal carcasses, 30 sheep, 1 horse, two donkeys and a pig had to eke out an existence. The…

Meggy | Sheep

Love can move mountains - who hasn't heard this saying? But love can do much more: out of love for his girlfriend, a young farmer sold all his animals because she didn't like the smell. He sold the 8 Cameroon sheep to another farmer who took them in temporarily. Interested parties then contacted him and…

Loulou | Sheep

Loulou, a two-year-old black-nosed sheep, lived together with Bubi on a mountain pasture. Unfortunately, the lease expired and the two sheep were placed with a farmer who was unable to keep them as they were used to. So the owners contacted Gut Aiderbichl's animal emergency center. And now they are here - Loulou and Bubi.
