A sheep described as the loneliest in Britain has been rescued after spending over two years stranded at the bottom of a cliff in the Scottish Highlands.
‘Fiona’ was pulled back up the steep slope by a team of five farmers.
The rescue team volunteered to help after Fiona’s owner was unable to reach her.
The isolation doesn’t seem to have impacted her health after receiving a trim and vet check.
“We have all been absolutely blown away by how stress-free she is, how natural she feels around us - she feels completely comfortable,” The Hoof GP Graeme Barker said.

The animal rights activists are hanging around the place that will take care of her, they ought to be ashamed of themselves, this sheep has been rescued & will be looked after like a queen for the rest of her life in a wonderful place, & yet they are still carrying on. 😡 There are other animals out there that need there so called help, go away and find other people to bother, not these people that are actually doing the right thing out of the goodness of their hearts. ❤️

The farmer has been trying to get her out, hes consulted with a number of agencies including the Royal Airforce who all advised it was too dangerous. These guys stepped up for poor Fiona. Fortunately she hadn’t lost condition, according to the video The Sheep Game put out she was actually rather chubby under her overgrown wool

Nice story but a lot of incorrect facts! He's Graham Parker, not Barker and he's not a farmer so "5 farmers" is incorrect. Also the voice over says "3 years" and your graphic says "2 years". This shouldn't be that hard a story to cover correctly.

Remote island, she was spotted in 2021 by a passing kayaker who notified the farmer & welfare groups. After a few attempts to find & rescue her by the farmer & welfare groups all failed to locate her. It was believed she had either died or made her way back up the cliff. She wasn't seen again until September 2023 which prompted the latest attempt to find her. This time they got lucky we now know she was sheltering in a cave probably why the other attempt's failed to find her when they looked.
