Who poisoned the cattle in the pasture? Five bulls died

Kto otruł bydło na pastwisku? Padło pięć byków

Unknown people poisoned five head of zebu cattle in a pasture in Reinheim in the district of Darmstadt-Dieburg in Hesse. German police are investigating the case and looking for witnesses.

A farmer found two dead bulls in the pasture, and three more animals in his herd died in the following days. The breeder notified the police and veterinary services. Toxicological tests of the dead animals showed that someone had intentionally killed them with a highly poisonous agent. The pasture is away from the road, behind a complex of ponds. Therefore, it is difficult to suspect that animal poisoning is a coincidence.

The criminal police in Dieburg are investigating this case for violations of the Animal Welfare Act. She announced an appeal to find witnesses who could help identify the perpetrator.
