Fence checking

No cattle on site at the moment as they are off for TB testing, so I checked the fenceline. No damage to report except to the plastic signs on the gates, four of which were replaced.

sorry to read about the loss of 201 the only good outcome is I will not need to carry on looking for her I had hoped to find her looking ok

Sad News

Jamie and I spent just over three hours today searching for the missing cow, mainly on foot. Sadly at about 13.00 we found her body in a small stand of scrub,where it looks like she died quietly. It was cow 201, the one that was rescued from the mud, so perhaps that ordeal finally took its toll. The grazier has been informed and is arranging for the removal of the remains.

Again, no sign of the missing cow

Hello
I spent yesterday afternoon driving around Caesar's Camp, but to no avail.
Please keep an eye out for her. We will continue to look until she turns up.
Thanks
Alex

No luck

Hello. Spent the morning driving around the site looking for the missing cow but had no luck in finding her. I half expected her to be around the blue barrel or near the corral as she may be able to smell where the others were loaded up but alas she was not! However as you all know you can drive or walk straight passed them sometimes and not see them so hopefully she is ok and I just missed her.

Someone from the team will go out again tomorrow to look again. If no luck again then we will have to plan a more systematic search with more people. Please let us know if this is something you might be able to help with on Thursday or Friday of this week at all? Please email AlexC@hwt.org.uk or give the office a ring 01256 381190 if you can help.

Thanks Laura

p.s. on a more positive note I saw my first Brimstone butterfly of the year today on site in this beautiful sunshine!

11 taken off for TB testing

Hello
The farmer had to take the cattle off today for mandatory TB testing.
He could only find 11, so there is one left on site. The farmer thinks that she is an all-black one.
Please keep your eyes open for the remaining cow, hopefully she is okay, and feeling a bit lonely. If you see her, get in touch and we can take her off for her TB test.
Many thanks
Alex

I must have seen the same two as ivan same place at around 8/am likewise unable to find the rest despite a wide search of surrounding area

After covering the length of Long Bottom I only managed to find two - within 100 yards Jubilee Clump - both seemed fine.
