Did you know that commercial cattle can be great conservation grazers too?

#grazeroftheweek this week is Gwyn the British Blue. Gwyn and his brother Llwyd are grazing at Eithinog in Upper Bangor.

Eithinog is a SSSI designated for its grassland fungi, and is also rich in wildflower grassland. With a herd of belted galloways, the two commercial British Blue cattle have plenty to eat and are doing a great job amongst the orchids and other wild flowers.

Eithinog is owned and managed by North Wales Wildlife Trust.

Don’t forget that you can submit your conservation grazing animals as our Grazer of the Week by posting to Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #grazeroftheweek, tagging @pontcymru
