ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION)<br/> <br />STORY: The snowy weather in the United Kingdom has been causing serious problems for farmers in Wales and Scotland.<br/> <br />Livestock farmers fear thousands of animals have been killed in heavy snowfall over the weekend.<br/> <br />On the hills above Corwen in North Wales, Gareth Wyn Jones has spent the last three days trying to save some of his livestock. Like many farmers he's been using his sheepdog to sniff out the stricken sheep.<br/> <br />"They are carrying a lot of snow on them. It's not a nice scenario and I think the dog's just found a sheep he's digging up there now, so we'd better make a move quickly, he said.<br/> <br />Sadly it's not often he finds any of his animals alive and many have given birth while trapped under the snowdrifts.
