When I was a kid my grandpa and grandma always took us for a walk to the Hietaniemi cemetery. We were feeding there ducks and squirrels and just roamed around enjoying the beautiful garden, old trees, flowers and pretty statues. Never thought that there is something weird about it... 🤔 I remember learning to read actually by practicing the names on the graveyard stones as walking by. And I still think Hietaniemi cemetery is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places in Helsinki (all year around!) Maybe you should visit there and see how you feel about it! So nothing weird about talking a walk in the cemetery for this woman born and raised in Helsinki. 🤷🏻♀️
I know of a rooster that is kept as a pet. That rooster has a name and it takes a nap every day with the owner sleeping side by side on the couch. That is in Helsinki in a place you can go and pet sheep also. But I don't think anyone keeps sheep at home and walk them around like dogs.... Or cats. 🤔😂
I live in the countryside and my friend owns a sheep farm 🐑🐑 Every summer he brings me 5-10 sheep to graze in my meadows. It”s win-win, because his sheep are fed by me and my meadows remains clean. And of course they are cute animals and I keep them like pets. However they are allowed to move freely in a wide area inside the enclosure 😊 Kiitos ❤ thank you for your videos
Welcome to Finland! The answer is Urbanization. People in cities are so distant from rural life now that it is an attraction to show farm animals at a marketplace. Finnish and most european farming is at an industry scale. Rarely people grow animals to slaughter at home, because it is not convenient. Big farms have thousands of sheep at a time and they load them to big trucks and take them to slaughterhouses. Massive places that will cut up every piece to be used and sold. Good meats to grocery stores, poorer meats to Food Processing plants and bones and leftovers are used for fertilizers or other chemical usages. If you were to go and see a slaughterhouse or a food processing plant your head would spin 😮
As a finnish woman, i have never seen anyone keeping sheep or chickens as a pet. Like a dog or cat. People that live in farms or otherwise have huge lawns, can own chicken or sheep. Sheeps are mostly breed for wool, but once they get big enough they are slauhterd and eaten. And chickens too. People have them for fresh eggs, but most of them will get eaten at the end. I think it might be little different in Helsinki, since it is a big city and people dont have space for farm animals, but even for me, having farm animals as pets is stupidity.

Going to cemetary is more about remembering the dead with placing the candles, not so much about walking around the cemetary.
@@MsBestPilotEver yes but still walking around the cemetery with candle lights felt very relaxing and calm.
