WALKERS are being advised to take care this summer when coming into contact with cattle.
The warning comes after a man was killed by cows in a field in Guestling earlier this month.
East Sussex County Council is reminding people, particularly those with dogs, that the normally docile animals can become aggressive, especially when calves are present.
The National Farmers’ Union says cows can feel threatened by dogs and are more likely to attack.
