Can you reunite this Kilkenny farmer with his sheep?
A farmer in County Kilkenny is searching for 15 sheep from his flock who went missing from a hill in Inistioge.
Agriliand are reporting that James Doyle, a farmer with cattle, dairy, and sheep has a flock of 72 sheep, but that 15 were "stolen" on July 29.
"I have seen where the sheep broke out, they obviously broke out into a neighbours field. Wherever they went after that, they must have been picked up and stolen," he told the publication.
"Nothing like this ever happened before. It’s terrible, we are walking until 10 o'clock every night in the dark looking for them," Mr Doyle added.
Anyone with information about the whereabouts of the sheep can contact Doyle on 086-0700-455.
