A sheep farmer in the UK has been been impeded from entering a factory with hoggets by a group of vegan protesters.
“Are you taking the dogs in to be killed?” ??????? not keen on the amount of photos and videos taken of my face... but I gave the camera a wave ?? #sheep365 #sheepdogs #flockofvegans pic.twitter.com/GBceLS68KF

The farmer filmed the event and tweeted that her dogs were frightened by the protesters.
Part of her filming showed protesters pushing their equipment into her trailer to film her sheep.
I’m not sure how scaring my animals by shoving cameras inside my trailer is actually allowed, would I be liable if I had a ram and someone got hurt? Could I legally scare someone’s pet cat in their garden? Police just walk along side asking me to slow down? #sheep365 pic.twitter.com/SqFJfdJy79
