HibeeJibee Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Britain's loneliest sheep in hiding after rehoming row - BBC News Britain's loneliest sheep taking into hiding after animal rights rehoming row A row has broken out over plans to rehome Britain's loneliest sheep. The ewe, now named Fiona, was rescued on Saturday after being stranded for more than two years at the foot of cliffs in the Scottish Highlands. But an animal rights group says plans to rehome her to a farm park near Dumfries would make her a "spectacle". Fiona is now a shorn sheep after her overgrown fleece was removed but remains in hiding after activists turned up at Dalscone Farm. On Saturday morning a team of five farmers successfully descended a rocky gully using a winch, and managed to extract her from the remote shoreline. But a row quickly erupted when an animal rights group criticised plans to rehome her at a farm park because they believed she would be "exploited" for money and become a "spectacle". On Sunday a small group of activists from Animal Rising - which earlier this year tried to disrupt a number of high-profile horse races - staged a protest at Dalscone Farm. The group said that prior to Fiona's rescue, some of its members had already descended the cliffs to get her accustomed to human contact. They were planning a similar extraction operation when they learned they had been beaten to it. "Farmer Ben" from Dalscone Farm said in a Facebook video that staff and family members felt "intimidated" by demonstrators who were flying a drone and holding "Free Fiona" placards. "We're going to give Fiona a five star home, we are going to get her some amazing friends," he said. "We are obviously closed at the moment. The farm park's closed for the winter, for the next five months, so she's got loads of time to settle in. "Nobody's going to be bugging her, we'll just get to know her, let her do her own thing." He said they had planned to put her in a single pen, introducing her to other animals slowly and with veterinary supervision - but that has now been put on hold. He said Fiona was currently at a secret location. "We are literally giving her the best home she could possibly get - and it's being blocked at the moment. And it's a crying shame," he added. Despite her lonely lifestyle in recent years, Fiona is said to be well-fed - slightly overweight even - and in good condition. She will now remain at an undisclosed location until the row over her future home is settled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 It seems like Animal Rising are just taking the huff that other folk rescued the sheep before they could. If they think a petting farm is cruel for a sheep, then I've got some bad news for them about normal farms. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee-Bey Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Those dafties should be breaking into animal testing labs and so on, not picketing petting zoos. We used to be a proper country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to be a proper country. When I was a PhD student, the animal testing lab at the uni would provide me with fresh rat tails for my experiments. Used to give me a wee styrofoam box of them. The security was immense and there were no signs to the place. I remember bringing the box home one night as I was about to head to the synchrotron the next day. My step-daughter who was 6 or 7 at the time said "What's that?" and opened the box. She never did that again. Screamed and screamed for ages. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
