Rescued 'Loneliest Sheep' Fiona Transferred to Dumfries Farm amid Protests and Controversy

Activists' concern over loneliest sheep's wellbeing after transfer to petting farm, following risky two-year rescue operation in Scottish Highlands.

Fiona, dubbed Britain’s loneliest sheep, was transferred to Dalscone Farm in Dumfries after being rescued from a cliff on the Scottish Highlands, where she had been stranded for two years.
The rescue mission was led by Cammy Wilson, a sheep shearer from Ayrshire, along with four other farmers using heavy equipment to haul Fiona up a steep slope.
Post-rescue, Fiona, looking content in her new home, was seen eating hay in a pen within a barn at the farm, according to a video released by Ben Best, the owner of Dalscone Farm.
However, Animal Rising, an activist group, protested Fiona's transfer to the farm, claiming that she should have been housed in a sanctuary instead of a petting zoo.
Despite the controversy, the farm owner, Ben Best, maintains that Fiona's new environment at Dalscone offers five-star treatment of animals and will remain transparent in their actions.
