Reported via desktop in the Dangerous or intimidating animals category anonymously at 09:58, Friday 12 April 2024

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5842584.

The farmer is allowing unpredictable and intimidating hers of bullocks to wander freely in this field making safe passage on the public footpath between prestbury and southam a dangerous undertaking. I had to turn and go back because they were trotting at pace toward me and rearing up. The farmer is aggressive and bullying. Please ensure he moves the bullocks to safe fields with no right of way present, or that the field is appropriately fences
