Description

Something strange is roaming the fields of Derrycrin, near Coagh in Tyrone. Is it a goat? A donkey? A pony? A mixture of them all? Nobody knows but everyone in the area is enjoying the speculation. Even the local vet is flummoxed but happy to join in the puzzle.

Kate Smith visited the area and the UTV crew found the creature more than happy to be filmed. Indeed, it might even have been posing for the camera.
