An investigation has been launched after 28 people who attended calf and lamb feeding and petting sessions at a farm contracted a parasite infection.
Public health bodies are looking into cases of cryptosporidium infection in people who visited Cowbridge Farm Shop at Marlborough Grange Farm in Cowbridge, Vale of Glamorgan.
Cryptosporidium is a parasite that can cause gastrointestinal illness, often linked to contact with animals, particularly young farm animals.
Public Health Wales (PHW) said the shop had voluntarily stopped the feeding and petting sessions and was cooperating with the investigation.
It is investigating along with Cardiff and Vale health board and Vale of Glamorgan council.
In a since-deleted Facebook post, the farm team said they had closed the feeding experiences "due to unforeseen circumstances" and apologised to people who had booked, adding a full refund could be obtained.
