I have only just picked up your message. Sorry, I don`t read this section very often.
I have not lived in Warks since 2003. having ceased farming in 1989 to follow another calling.
Digicams which are easily carried your pocket were not around then. I was using an SLR only carried when I was photographing.
The sheep were eaten in that way for around 7 years. Dead ewes were thankfully quite rare. This happened EVERY time I left a dead one in the field. I only left dead ewes out overnight at busy times. At other times I would generally get any sickly ewes in.
Did you hear that there was an ABC on the CCTV in Stratford? Or was it a myth?
There were fowlpens ripped open by something with large claws in Claverdon at the time as well.
Dogs went missing quite regularly as well. I understand that leopards feed on village dogs in the countries where leopards live in the wild

I'm in Warks too, and read your posts on big cats. Your description of the sheep certainly sounds like cat, a bet you didn't take any photos though? How long ago was it and do you still keep sheep?
Sadly the dead one in the barn turned out to be just a mummified fox but I do believe one patrols through our county occasionally, perhaps once or twice a year.
Cheers, Tim -
Yes...'couched in his kennel, like a log, with paws of silver, sleeps the dog... - Hi bigdave, I loved your post tonight on my 'where are you' thread, it reminded me a little of the style of writing of Walter De La Mere...Do you know of the poem he wrote...'Silver'..
I could almost see your surroundings and wildlife, thanks to your very discriptive post..Posie..:) -
Hi bigdave. I spotted your comment on the 'cows & ramblers' thread about cows killing hares. Do you have any further info about this? I'd be very interested to know what/why it happens. Cheers, Marc.
