I'm Marie. I'm a longtime fan of the Harvest Moon/Rune Factory series. This blog is mostly dedicated to 'Tsunagaru Shintenchi' (Story of Seasons) and a bit to 'Rune Factory 4.' I'll probably make other HM blogs. I've been translating screenshots, events, videos, manga, etc. since around 2003. I have a 'Fire Emblem' sideblog, and a 'Cherished Friends' sideblog. (The next SoS title!)

Of less importance: I'm a crazy cat lady who likes to crochet.

What are the animals' average lifespans?

It can vary quite a bit, depending on how you treat them. Generally speaking:

All of the larger livestock should live a minimum of 5 to 6 years. If their affection is high, they should live a year or two beyond that.

Sheep don’t live quite as long as the other large livestock.

Angora rabbits and all chickens will probably live for just 4 to 5 years.

If you wake up to find an animal died and you saved the game before going to bed, you can reload and the animal may not die. This is really useful because you may have one or two animals who make a random attempt to die off earlier than they should. (It’s happened to me, especially with one certain sheep.)
