Summary
An 87-year-old farmer died after being struck by a cow while moving livestock onto a lorry — a tragedy that unfolded on June 16, 2025, near Stonehaven. The inquiry revealed his declining mobility and the farm’s unsafe pass made the task dangerously risky. Two cows were safely loaded before the third charged, causing fatal brain injuries and broken ribs. Help was nearby, but the sheriff emphasized waiting for assistance could have saved his life. The family has since sold the cattle-free farm, with no formal safety recommendations issued — a sobering reminder that even routine farm work can become lethal when personal limits aren’t respected.
