ABOUT US
Lions and Tigers in the Cotswolds? Well not quite..but here is a bit of an explanation!
THE TRUTH ABOUT TIGERS
The name Cotswold Tiger blends the rich heritage of the Cotswolds with something even closer to our hearts - Indiana our Working Cocker Spaniel, who has always affectionately been known as Tiger, and the animal that is synonymous with shaping the Cotswolds as we know it today - the Cotswold Lion!
The Cotswold Lion is in fact a breed of sheep and it is the reason why the Cotswolds looks the way it does now, with beautiful rolling hills peppered with honey coloured villages and towns. It was the Romans who really developed sheep farming in the area on large estates around Cirencester, building on methods and techniques learnt from the Celtic Britons. The sheep were grazed in large ‘cots' or enclosures, the enclosures sited on the ‘ wolds ' or hills; hence Cots-Wolds.
Our Cotswold Tiger can regularly be seen touring the Cotswolds with Edward, and often pops up on our blog, and the real Lions can of course be found at the Cotswold Wildlife Park.
