Hello all,
Not good news i am afraid but there was a dead calf found this morning down near the large sandy area (Sunny Hill).
One of the lookers found the calf and reported it to us straight away which we are really grateful for. We immediately found the calf and informed the farmer who will visit the site to remove the carcass.
Whilst the carcass was in the early stages of decomposition (i.e. bloating with gases) it still looked to be in a healthy state and did not have any signs of injury. Obviously this makes us all think about the lead incident a while back but we hope that this is just one of those farming incidents that happens with livestock. However, if everyone could just keep an extra eye on the cows and spend a couple more minutes than normal that would be really appreciated.
Thanks
Elliott
