Starved sheep found on Craig County farm; owner charged [] BLUEJACKET, Okla. The owner of a flock of starving sheep has been jailed on animal cruelty complaints after the corpses of dozens of the sheep were found on his Craig County farm today. Craig County authorities had been investigating properties owned by 46-year-old David Bradley Bell for about a month and moved in with a search warrant this morning. They found hundreds of dead or dying Barbado sheep, some piled several deep in a feeder pen inside a barn, others strewn about a pasture. Authorities say some of the animals had been dead a short time, while bones protruded from worn-away hide on other corpses. Investigators from the state Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners found no feed or water on the farm, so Bluejacket Volunteer Fire Department members cut holes in nearby ponds. Authorities say Bell told them he could not afford to feed the sheep. _______________________________________________ This message is from the blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
