Sheep are destroying precious British habitats – and we taxpayers are footing the bill
(www.theguardian.com)
Just about to head out for 3 nights on Dartmoor to celebrate the recent ruling in favour of wild camping. Makes me sad to read articles like this.
I think these stories are particularly worth bearing in mind when people say that British livestock is raised on marginal land that couldn't grow crops. Even if that were largely true, it doesn't mean we should shove a sheep on every square inch of land that can't be ploughed.
