Sick joyrider mows down and kills 15 pregnant sheep ‘for thrills’ in barbaric 4×4 rampage

 

This is absolutely unthinkable, what is wrong people?!  It seems like as we move closer to the shift, people are becoming just as disconnected from reality as they are from their humanity. How could someone even conceive of doing something like this, was it on a bet?

 

It was difficult finding an appropriate category to file this under without having to create a new one, guess it’s about time for a psycho’s category!

• Devastated farmer believes his animals were targeted by twisted thrill-seekers playing a game
• A number of the ewes were left with missing limbs after being hit with such force the car bumper fell off

This is the scene of carnage left in the wake of a sick joyrider who deliberately ploughed his 4×4 into a flock of heavily-pregnant sheep.

Devastated farmer Chris Sargent, 29, found the mangled bodies of 15 ewes lying dead or dying in his field in Wrotham Hill, Kent.

The farmer today said he believes his animals were targeted by twisted thrill-seekers playing a game to hit as many of the livestock as possible.

Devastated: Farmer Chris Sargent said he believes his animals were targeted by twisted thrill-seekers playing a game to hit as many of the livestock as possible

A number of ewes were left with missing limbs after they were hit with such force the car’s bumper fell off.

Mr Sargent, who had a flock of 80 sheep before the attack, said the killing of 15 ewes and up to 25 unborn lambs was ‘utterly barbaric’.

He said: ‘What sort of a person can deliberately mow down a flock of sheep in the middle of the night? It’s utterly barbaric. Total cruelty.

‘They have been out here for some time. It is not just a two-minute attack.’

A stunned walker discovered the carnage at 9am on Monday and called the police.

Police believe the driver took the Land Rover Discovery in the dead of night into the field along a muddy bridleway before rampaging across the field.

Horror scene: Seven of the animals were already dead and eight had to be shot after they had been left in pain all night following the barbaric attack, which police officers are investigating

Seven of the animals were already dead and eight had to be shot after they had been left in pain all night following the barbaric attack.

Mr Sargent, who farms at Catsford, near Battle, East Sussex, keeps the 80 ewes and a ram in the field owned by the St Cleres estate near the M20 for winter grazing.

The ewes, which are worth around £3,000 in total, were due to give birth to between 20 and 25 lambs worth around £100 in the new year.

Kent police said part of a black moulded bumper bar with a serial number found at the scene comes from a Mark I Land Rover Discovery.

Adrian Allen, Neighbourhood Policing Team Inspector, said: ‘This is a terrible crime that has resulted in great pain, distress and suffering and it is difficult to imagine who could do such a callous thing.

‘We are keen to establish a motive for this attack as quickly as possible.’

Over 50 Cows in Pakistan Drop dead from Mysterious Disease

At least 50 animals, mostly cows, have died due to a mysterious disease in different villages of Gadap Town in just 3 days, creating panic among the local herdsmen. Salim Memon of the Karachi Rural Network (KRN), representing 40 non governmental organisations, said that they were collecting the data about the loss of animals in different villages. He said that, so far, the herdsmen could not ascertain the exact cause of the death of the animals. A Gadap Town official, who was reluctant to be named, told The News that he has also received information regarding the death of 25 cows in different villages during the last 24 hours. He stated that there are 3 veterinary hospitals in the town, including one major hospital in Gadap city built in 1965, another in Memon Goth and the 3rd one in Pathan Goth. Apart from this, he said the town had also launched a mobile veterinary clinic to facilitate the livestock owners in the villages. The facility of mobile veterinary clinic was active 4 months back, but now it is inactive. He added that since the staff in veterinary hospitals was appointed on political basis, they are reluctant to attend their respective hospitals and are drawing their monthly salaries. That is why herdsmen are approaching the authorities for help. He said the herdsmen are unable to take their animals to a nearby hospital because they die as soon as they are hit by this strange disease. A herdsman of Gadap said that he had lost 4 cows and he had never witnessed this kind of disease before. They fall and die immediately, he informed this correspondent. According to the data collected from some of the villages in Gadap Town, 4 cows have died in Hamzo Gabol Goth, 3 in Khamiso Goth and 7 cows died in Arif Rind Goth. The local herdsmen were of the view that stagnant water might be the cause of this disease in which animals die instantly, while others believe that there might be a poisonous insect in the green grass, which affects the animals.
