Dogs kill four sheep

Two dogs have been destroyed after a vicious attack on sheep at Ambury Regional Park in Mangere.

The attack happened late morning last Sunday when three dogs bailed up the sheep, killing three and leaving a fourth fatally injured.

"Rangers were alerted to the attack by a member of the public and got down there immediately while it was taking place. Unfortunately, the third dog got away but we hope it won't be back," park ranger Stan Hall says.

The dogs, neither of which had collars or tags, inflicted serious wounds to the backs of the sheep.

"We were lucky we only lost four animals." MORE>>

Members of the public with any information about dogs in the Ambury Park area can contact the park's rangers, phone: 636-6118 or 021-366-254.
