Children of all ages had an opportunity to see and pet lambs, piglets, ponies, horses and cows at the annual FFA Petting Zoo held last week in observance of National FFA Week. Pens were set up in the welding shop at Aurora High School and students from Aurora as well as homeschoolers and others came to get up close and personal with the animals.
