Farming Today This Week

Charlotte Smith has a few jumpy moments at an unusual farm in Cambridgeshire, coming face-to-face with a moody ostrich and being snapped at by a crocodile.

It's not his only quirky enterprise - ostrich, emu and buffalo roam his 130 acres and the farm shop sells everything from python to kangaroo. During her exploration of the exotic meat trade Charlotte has a few jumpy moments, coming face-to-face with a moody ostrich and being snapped at by a crocodile.
