Beat rustling — and get your stock back
Sheep and cattle rustling costs UK farms millions a year, usually under cover of night. Flockarewe alerts you the moment stock is moved when it shouldn't be, and gives the police a live recovery link to follow your animals and get them back.
Night-movement alerts
Animals moving together when they should be settled triggers an instant alert — the classic signature of rustling.
Live recovery link
Share a live, updating location with the police so they can follow the stock and recover it while it's on the move.
Proof and records
A full movement history and animal register backs up your crime report and insurance claim.
Whole-flock coverage
LoRa ear tags make it affordable to tag a whole flock or herd, not just a prize few — so any theft shows.
Make your stock traceable, not just fenced
Rustlers work fast and at night, often clearing a field before anyone knows. Flockarewe adds the layer a gate and a padlock can't: live recovery. With animals tagged, coordinated night movement triggers an instant alert, and you can share a live location straight with the police while the stock is still on the move.
Because LoRa ear tags are affordable, you can tag the whole flock or herd rather than a token few — so any theft shows up, and your movement history and animal register support the crime report and insurance claim. See how it all fits in how it works, or for cattle specifically, cattle tracking.
Livestock theft — FAQs
How can I stop livestock rustling?
You can't fence out determined thieves, but you can make stolen stock traceable. Tag animals with LoRa ear tags or GPS collars so that any night-time movement triggers an alert and you can hand police a live location to recover them.
Can police recover stolen livestock with a tracker?
Yes — that's the value of the live recovery link. Instead of a last-known point, Flockarewe gives a continuously updating location you can share with the police while the animals are still being moved.
Does theft tracking work with no mobile signal?
Yes. LoRa ear tags and collars report to your own gateways across fields and fells with no mobile signal and no SIM per animal — exactly where rustling tends to happen.
Will I be woken for normal night grazing?
No. Shep, the built-in AI farm dog, distinguishes normal night movement from the coordinated movement that signals theft, and only escalates real concern.
Does this help with insurance?
A clear record of ownership and movement strengthens any claim, and tracked stock may be viewed more favourably by insurers. Use Flockarewe's records when you report a theft.
