bel said "It's funny that the guy (Ranch owner John Perriam) says this.... ...the ram would have had "little food in winter" when snow piles up more than 6 feet deep, bitter winds blow across the mountain peaks, and grazing would only be possible when snow was blown off slopes. when Shrek has been on the lam and surviving on his own for six years."

Don't have ranches in NZ, bel. Them's "stations".

And Mr Perriam was right. There would have been precious little food for him in winter. Obviously enough, but it wouldn't have been great tucker ...
