Livestock

Grazing animals can also be a target for criminals and should be treated like any other valuables, employing crime prevention measures where necessary.

  • Check the security of perimeter fencing/hedging and make regular checks of fields where animals are kept to ensure perimeter fences are not breached.
  • Use eartags, horn brands and freeze/hot brand marking or tattooing to make animals more easily identifiable.
  • Take photographs of animals, particularly ones that are valuable or could be attractive to criminals.
