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!

    Saturday 13th December - All 25 seen

    The cattle were all good today.

    They were in three groups—five members of the Caesar's original herd foraging for acorns and munching on gorse at the eastern end of Sandy Hill, the seven Sussexes deep in the gorse bushes on Hungry Hill. The remaining thirteen originals were grazing and resting in the sunshine north of Horse Pond.

    Decided not to spend a great deal of time trying to get to the Sussexes, expecting them to be more accessible later. By the time, I'd spent some quiet, relaxing time with the group of thirteen, the Sussexes had walked the entire length of Sandy Hill and were resting on the grassy island to the southwest of James Bond Pond.

    I was able to take some close-up photos of steer 33’s rear left hoof today. His inner claw is extremely long, and it appears that the outer claw is beginning to grow underneath it. I will share additional photos with the grazing team on Monday.

    Full update and some photos to follow in a while.
