A farmer called North Yorkshire Police, requesting CRO’s help, when a sheep became stranded on a limestone outcrop, about 8m from the ground at Feizor Nick. The farmers had tried to reach the sheep but its position was described as ‘perilous without professional help’. Concerned that a roped descent to the sheep might cause it to jump, a team member climbed up, then restrained and secured the animal so that it could be assisted to the top and released in safety.
