2. Any person, firm or corporation negligently allowing a domestic animal to enter within a fenced right of way of a highway is liable for damages caused by a collision between a motor vehicle and the animal occurring on the highway.

From the story: "In a statement Thursday, Mary Martini, district engineer for the Nevada Department of Transportation in Las Vegas, said that while the state maintains the fences along I-15 to “designate the right of way” and control access, “it is always the responsibility and liability of the owners to control their animals."

So if the state did have a fence designating the right of way, and Bundy allowed his cow to ener into the fenced right of way, then he's liable.

Are you from an open range state or really familiar with open range laws?
