Firefighters Respond to Cow With Chair on its Head
UPI ^ | Aug. 28

Posted on 08/28/2015 10:48:51 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Firefighters in Britain said two crews responded to a report of a cow with its head stuck in a garden chair.

Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue tweeted a picture showing the cow with its head trapped in a plastic lawn chair about 7:50 a.m. Thursday.

The tweet said crews from Mounts and Wellingborough responded to the address in Boughton, England, to attempt to assist the boggled bovine.

The fire department said the cow managed to "self-release" from its predicament, but not before firefighters snapped a picture of the cow wearing its unusual headgear.

In Britain, even the cows have a stiff upper lip.

You act like you've never seen a cow with a chair stuck on its head."

That animal does not look mature. May be a young Bull.
This may be his first chair encounter.

It is a heifer which is a young cow that hasn’t yet had a calf.

Not only is he wearing a chair, but he’s got what looks like a pink lawn dart in his ear.

LOL No, sorry but it never was a bull unless there was some plastic surgery to remove all male parts.

Well now really, when is there a better time to throw lawn darts at your cow, then when she’s got her head stuck in a chair?

Don’t you non-farmers know anything? LOL :)
