Grazing cattle are now on #StokeCommon. Some of the cows are pregnant. Did you know that dog faeces can carry Neospora parasites that can cause cows to abort their calves? Learn more 👉 buff.ly/3X8VpzZ
Don't be the cause of calves being aborted.
Spot it. Bag it. Bin it.

Our four Exmoor ponies are currently enjoying themselves on the West Common of Stoke Common! They will be happily grazing here until early March. With an abundance of natural food available, it's important to refrain from feeding or approaching them. #ExmoorPonies #StokeCommon

Our four #ExmoorPonies are enjoying their new #grazing patch! This area of #StokeCommon hasn't been grazed for a couple of years so there's plenty of grasses, young trees, gorse & broom for them to eat.
Please do not feed the ponies – they have delicious food already!

This inkcap is one of several fungi that only grow in livestock dung - just one reason why cow and pony dung is a welcome part of the natural systems on the #naturereserve.
Reminder: it is a #criminal offence to collect any #fungi at #Burnham Beeches or #StokeCommon.

Have you seen the new signs at #StokeCommon? They’re newtiful!
Did you know the UK has 3 highly protected native species of newt? We know most dogs love the water but newts live in & around the ponds & we need to help them thrive.
Please, keep your dogs out of the ponds 🐶
