A 16-year-old mischievous but friendly bull who was the "highlight" at a petting zoo has died. Hamish, who was the first resident of Animal Quackers in Bacup, had lived on the farm for 15 years of his life before he died on Monday (March 8). Owner of the petting zoo, Terry Bork said: "He wasn't looked upon like livestock - he was always a mate, a family member. "I would speak to him like a mate, I would go in and stroke him and hug him like a mate. "He never came across like an animal, he had his attitudes - if he wanted something he would talk to me from a distance and get his tongue out and start licking his nostrils."
