Charity fund set up by farmers who rescued world's loneliest sheep

National

The ewe, now named Fiona, was recently rescued after being stranded for over two years at the foot of cliffs in the Scottish Highlands.

There has been hundreds of offers of donations since, following media coverage of the mission to get the sheep safely to her new home.

Fiona had spent more than two years in a location generally agreed to be too treacherous to attempt to remove her.

The ewe was found to be in good health after the rescue and, having been checked over by Scottish SPCA inspectors, she is now settling into her new home at Dalscone Farm.
