Seven sheep, along with a bag of veterinary products, were discovered illegally dumped during the second week in December, found in a Coillte-owned forest on the Donegal-Northern Ireland border.
“The farmer is likely local to the area. It’s a real cowboy act and I’m hearing similar reports in recent months,” Donegal councillor Patrick McGowan told the
Irish Farmers Journal.
The sheep were discovered in the Meenagoland, Killygordon, area and did not have tags.
McGowan continued: “The county council litter warden came up to the forest to see if there was any evidence amongst the veterinary products for who might have owned the sheep.
