Rare Breeds at the
New Zealand Agricultural Show

One of the main annual events of the Canterbury group of the Rare Breeds Conservation Society of New Zealand is its display at the New Zealand Agricultural Show (run by the Canterbury A&P Association) in Christchurch. The 2024 show ran for three days from 14 to 16 November 2024. There were fewer animals on display this year but they were in bigger pens and there was a lot of positive feedback from the public.

Below are photographs (courtesy Marina Steinke) of some of the Rare Breeds exhibits that were on display at this year’s Show – move the mouse cursor onto a photograph to see its caption.

Thanks to Marina Steinke for supplying the above photographs and captions.
