It appears that cow attacks are 'going global'. From New Zealand we have this:
A jogger feared for his life during an attack by a cow in a popular Auckland park that left him with a broken arm and extensive bruising. A morning run through the farm at Cornwall Park, on One Tree Hill, has been part of Ted Walker's routine for almost 15 years.
But the Greenlane resident never expected to be attacked by a full-grown cow protecting her calves. While running through a paddock on July 26, he passed a cow who had recently given birth to two calves. She knocked him to the ground, kicking and head-butting him.
"I was absolutely terrified and scared witless," he says, "I thought it was all over. I quite literally thought she was going to kill me."

Those last three words didn't give him a bit of a clue?

Sorry to do this, but they need a comma in there; it was the cow that left him injured, not the park.
OK, I'll get my coat. But someone has to care..... :o)
