'Cattle would have been much more common on uplands in days gone-by and both cattle and sheep grazing at the right intensity are vital to ensuring a landscape rich in wildlife'
Cattle are set to aid the recovery of one of Northern Ireland’s most iconic landscapes following devastating fires.
The National Trust, which cares for much of the area, has been trialling different methods to rejuvenate the land and bring it back to full health for the plants and animals that live there. The animals, which are looked after by a tenant farmer, will wear special collars with GPS tracking, which allows virtual fences to be created to allow targeted grazing in particular areas without the need for fencing.
He described the Luing as “hardy” and suited conservation grazing in the uplands due to their highland heritage and docile nature. The National Trust said the cows have been carefully trained to respond to the collars before their introduction to get used to them – and they have also been supervised by a vet to ensure no undue stress is caused.
