Follow up on the missing sheep flock-

http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/06/08/missing-sheep-saga-draws-to-a-close-as-inspectors-find-begin-to-destroy-quarantined-flock/

The strange yarn of the fugitive flock – heritage sheep said to be related to the first sheep that came from England to Canada – is coming to a messy end after food inspection officials finally found at least some of the quarantined sheep stolen in a high-profile bid to save them from the slaughterhouse.

Canada Food Inspection Agency officials found 28 sheep and has started to kill them, said their owner, Montana Jones.

The sheep were apparently found on a farm near Chesley, Ont., not far from the Lake Huron shore but a five hour drive from her farm in eastern Ontario where they went missing.

Ontario Provincial Police and CFIA both independently confirmed that some of the missing sheep, which were subject to a government quarantine order in a scrapie scare, were found but refused to provide any details or confirm a cull has begun.

More on the link itself, but I copied that part that I felt was the update, the rest is overview..

My other post on this subject.. Warning, its a bit of a rant..

    This is an excerpt from a Financial Post article from May 3rd…

    “…Further fuelling her skepticism are the agency’s unwillingness to let her arrange for independent testing to corroborate the government’s lab results and the discovery of a signed provincial certificate condemning her sheep’s meat over “contamination with scrapie” — dated two weeks before they had been tested…”
    I hadn’t read this quote before but isn’t it enough to make you stop and wonder? Especially if you read the whole article: http://www.nationalpost.com/m/wp/news/blog.html?b=news.nationalpost.com/2012/05/03/hide-go-sheep-woolly-houdini-raises-questions-about-how-agency-fights-livestock-disease.
    No opinions here; just some very healthy scepticism about the fact that some people don’t ever make mistakes, wouldn’t admit to if they did and just generally push their weight around because they can (and they LIKE it).

    • I had read it, that is why I had written in the first “rant” that no matter what the test results are, she does not believe them, and as I said, because the other side is not offering their version of the story publicly, its a whole lotta spin going on..
