Overview
- Tuesday morning near Markt Schwaben several sheep broke through a solar park fence and neared adjacent rail lines, prompting a police response.
- Bundespolizei officers and agricultural staff used a bucket filled with stones to simulate feed and coax the sheep back into their enclosure without disrupting rail operations.
- Sheep owners subsequently inspected and reinforced the fencing to prevent further escapes and maintain the animals’ grazing duties beneath the solar panels.
- Around 11 a.m. on the A94 between Feldkirchen-West and Riem a mother duck led her ducklings onto the motorway, creating a traffic hazard.
- Officers marked the danger zone with warning lights, ordered a speed reduction via the traffic guidance system and guided the duck family across the carriageway without incident.
