VIENNA (Reuters) - A cow toppled off its lofty Alpine pasture and crashed onto the hood of an Austrian couple's car in the picturesque province of Salzburg, police said Thursday.
The cow did not survive Wednesday's fall off the so-called gallery -- an open-sided roof over roads to protect people from avalanches. The car was a write-off. The driver's wife was hurt and taken to a hospital, the Salzburg police added.

How much is one cow worth anyway? ... American $$$, not lira ... otherwise we'll have to call in Cagey with his currency calculator!

Hmmmmm, a good young cow should bring 700 to 1200 bucks depending on her breed, if she is regristered or not and if she has a calf by her side. Some will be worth less and others will bring more.

I hope they get at least a good prime rib steak for their troubles.
