Wild dogs attack sheep in Jertih, Terengganu

 


Livestock farmers, especially sheep rearers, in three villagers in Jertih, Terengganu, are concerned with the safety of their farm animals as well as the residents due to the presence of wild dogs in the area.

One of the sheep rearers, Mohd Aliff Mohd Ariffin, 34, claimed that the wild dogs had attacked and killed 18 of his sheep this month.

“About five wild dogs entered my farm in Kampung Bukit Puteri and attacked the sheep, which were of various ages.

“The dogs only mauled the sheep. They did not eat them, and following the incident, I no longer allow the sheep to roam on the farm but keep them confined in the barn for fear they would be attacked by the wild dogs,” said Aliff, who estimated his loss at about RM5,000.

Aliff said the attack by the wild dogs was the first experienced by him since he started rearing sheep about seven years ago.

A farmer, Hassan Abdullah, 56, said the wild dogs attacked and killed three of his sheep last Wednesday.

“I’m not sure if the wild dogs that attacked my sheep were the same ones that attacked the sheep belonging to Aliff, but the wild dogs move in a pack and they are not afraid of humans,” he said.

Meanwhile, about 3am today, one of the residents in Kampung Tok Has would have lost one of his sheep to the wild dogs if not for the alertness of his neighbours.
