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!

     All 3 widely spread out in the top right corner of the area nosing under leaf litter. All fit and well. Trough OK.

    Friday 26th March

    I'm a new Looker (hi everyone), will be lookering on Fridays, so attended site with Ciara today for training. We located all three looking well at E4. Whilst we were there talking cow health they did become very inquisitive and very vocal, and they then followed us down to the gate at F7, we suspect they were hopeful of nuts or Salt Lick perhaps. 

    Last seen at together at G12 as we left. 

    Take care,

    Thursday 25th March

    Fixed the broken fence near the trough. All 3 came over to try and help which in fact wasn’t helpful but a nice thought all the same. All looking good, gave them some nuts for waiting so patiently for me to finish the fence

    25th March - Salt Lick City

    All three were near the trough, huddling around a salt lick.

    No issues to report bar 75 wasn't getting much of a look in on the Salt lick which led to some headbutting, so I moved it into a space that enabled a bit more sharing.

    All found laid down by the trough. All good and trough good

    Tuesday 23rd March

     7:30am and we followed Evan round along the fence to meet the others just up from the trough. They were all very noisy calling each other I’m guessing as they quietened down once gathered together lol.

    All looked well, I didn’t see any flies on any of them, trough ok too. 

    I’ve had a few comments about how good the new gate is over on the railway side and I’m hoping there will be the same type of gate installed over on the Pyestock side very soon.

    Monday 22nd March

    Found all 3 around the trough area at 10.40am on a beautiful sunny morning. Evan was eating what I assume is the remains of a lick, Caledonia and Teasel foraging in the leaves. Both Evan and Caledonia seemed to have lots of small flies on their underbodies and around their sheaths but no other marks or problems.

    All good but not seen 114 up

     Two of them up and munching today, still haven’t seen 114 on her feet. She was repeatedly licking her front left leg and no amount of gentl...
