Rural crime officers have mounted a major anti-poaching push in North Wales using the latest crime prediction techniques.

At the same time they are targeting a sheep rustling gang which has already snatched 100 Beulah ewes from a Cerrigydrudion farm.

Sgt Rob Taylor, of North Wales rural crime team, said another 30 Beulah ewes had been taken from a farm in Betws GG, each with red anchor cross on their backs (ear tag no UK707935).

An attempted theft on a third farm was thwarted.

He said it was clear that people with farming knowledge were active in the area.
