I really do hate Barbed wire.

[Anna]

Jillions of dead animals lay as roadkill all over the world. I won't weep too much over one more... be it roadkill of fencekill.

 

Big deal.

 

Thats fine you welcome to your opinion, i have mine!

:wave:

You're right! Down with barbed wire! They kill the 'lil birdies!!!

 

[Dean Lofthouse]

The point being here (parden the pun) is that the Owl was needlessly killed. There is no need for the barbed wire. The wire is at the top of a shear mud slope, unless the cows have ropes and harness.

 

Owls are protected here, if the wire had been none barbed as Anna says, it would not have become hung up. It looks as though the Owl had landed to get a mouse and has become hung up on take off.

 

The bloke who put the fence up is a zillionaire, he has a resturaunt and as a gimmick had some cows to say he uses his own beef, he has no exprience of animal husbandry. I have had to round his cows up twice after they escaped, once onto my fathers front lawn and the second across the main road into a 50 acre woodland. That time it took me an hour just to find them and I was on an off road bike.

 

Farming is not just about fattening animals, it's a bit more complex than that.

My son has just reminded me that we rescued a Tawney Owl from our yard off some barbed wire a few years ago, that died though sadly.

I hate the stuff for some reason our local farmer puts it 6 inches from the floor so unsuspecting dogs end up with more than they bargained for when they go for a pee

LOL I think we should all have that attitude, then we can all destroy our planet to the point where any wildlife we have left is breed in captivity then it would save us all the hassle ah!
