Incident number: 917

Response ID:

Date: 25/7/2024

Location: SA79EA (Swansea, Birchgrove)

Steve said he was walking on a public footpath in the above postcode along a narrow lane. He was forced to walk directly through a group of cows and was badly frightened. “The cows and calves are loose in a narrow lane fenced on both sides . It is not possible to pass without walking through the herd . The animals are spooked and some will run in any direction trying to escape”

“The animals should be contained in a fenced and gated field and not be allowed to roam in a narrow lane It is much easier to avoid any contact with them in a larger area”
