Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

  1. Call the office on 01256 381190.
  2. If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call.
  3. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

  • Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

  • If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed.

  • Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact.


    Thank you!

    Tuesday am

    No cattle sightings, but I did come across a man with two labrador sized dogs talking to a woman with two black labradors. It would appear that one or other of their dogs had brought down and killed a fawn. It was a rather disturbing conversation as the solution they were proposing was to muzzle the dogs, so they couldn’t bite the deer. They were quite happy for the dogs to chase the deer all over the heathland, indeed the man was of the opinion that it was only a problem when fawns are around as he reckoned his dogs would not catch up with an adult deer.
