A rare-breed sheep has been slaughtered on Dartmoor in a Satanic ritual to mark the midsummer solstice.
The whiteface Dartmoor ewe was found by a farmer mutilated in a field with one ear and a back leg hacked off and her jugular vein cut.
Its lamb was wandering nearby.
The female farmer, who did not want to be named, had gone out to check her flock of 100 ewes and 90 lambs on Midsummer’s Day morning.
The corpse had been dragged around to leave an intricate bloody spiral on the grass in the remote Teign Valley on Dartmoor in Devon.
The farmer says it the latest in a line of attacks by devil worshippers across Devon and Cornwall – mostly carried out on lonely moors at night.
