Around one hundred sheep have been washed away in Carmarthenshire after relentless rain and wind caused by Storm Callum.
The sheep were washed away into the water at Pontargothi on Saturday (13 October) due to the severe flooding.
A person responded to Dyfed Powys Police's plea for more information on Twitter saying how some sheep were spotted floating down the river Towy.
Other users criticised the owners of the sheep, calling it "unnecessary" and "neglectful".
However, one user defended the owner, saying it isn't his or her's fault as "no farmer would knowingly let that happen" because it's a "business investment".
Approx 100 sheep have been washed away info the water at Pontargothi today due to the flooding. If any sheep wash up anywhere or if anyone has information, please contact police on 101 - reference 210 of 13.10.18.
