Cow Escapes Meat Plant, Dodges SUV, Train

Title: Cow Escapes Meat Plant, Dodges SUV, Train
Feisty Cow Escapes Slaughterhouse, Dodges Vehicles, Train and Braves Icy River Before Recapture
GREAT FALLS, Mont. Jan 6, 2006 — A cow that escaped a slaughterhouse dodged vehicles, ran in front of a train, braved the icy Missouri River and took three tranquilizer darts before being recaptured six hours later. News of the heifer's adventures prompted a number of people to offer to buy the animal.
The black, 1,200 pound heifer jumped a gate at the packing plant at around 5 a.m. Thursday and apparently wandered through residential areas. Police received reports at about 9:30 a.m. that it was in the middle of a busy intersection.

That's one up for the reincarnation bit that the Hindu's express. Who knows who that cow could be? Black, jumping fences (hurdles) , dodging trains and traffic? It's got to be the great Olympic runner that defeated Hitlers runners just before WW2 . Remember his name?

They should resell this one to a place where it can live a full natural life.

I bet they could make more money selling her as a supercow or breeding her for rodeo cows than they could by eating her.

I can't imagine why this cow would run away.
Maybe something to do with impending death?
I have visions of this cow running trough the streets with 'Jailbreak' by ACDC playing in the background..... can't wait for the movie.
GO COW!!!
