Tommy is walking through his field looking at his sheep.
He notices that one is limping.
She has walked on a broken glass bottle that was thrown into the field and broke on a stone.
Further on he finds the plastic bag the bottles were carried in.
There is a little shrew dead inside the bag – it wasn’t able to breathe.
Tommy is very cross.
He keeps his farm clean and this litter has been thrown on to his land from a passing car.
