“Holy” cow escapes on way to slaughterhouse, smashes through metal fence, then swims to safety on island in lake

TOM EMBURY-DENNIS: ‘A cow has been living alone on an island, attacking anyone who comes near, after staging a miraculous escape on its way to a slaughterhouse. The animal made its bid for safety last… after it refused to get into a lorry taking it to be killed for meat. Instead it rammed a metal fence before making a dash for the nearby Lake Nysa, south Poland. After the cow’s owner, known only as Mr Lukasz, attempted to get it back to the farm, the cow broke one of his worker’s arms… It then entered the water and swam to one of the islands in the middle of the lake. Mr Lukasz said he even saw it dive underwater on its way…

a political leader in the town of Nysa, Czeslaw Bilobran, has reportedly said the cow will live out its life in peace… “She escaped heroically and infiltrated the island in the middle of the lake, where it remains today,” Mr Kukiz said… “I am not a vegetarian, but fortitude and the will to fight for this cow’s life is invaluable. Therefore, I decided to do everything to cause the cow to be delivered to a safe place and in the second stage, as a reward for her attitude, give her a guarantee of a long-term retirement and natural death”.’ SOURCE…
