Cow commits the perfect crime

From The Telegraph

A grandmother has been killed in a freak accident after a cow barged against a gate which then hit her on the family farm.

Mrs Arnison-Newgass, who had two children and five grandchildren, and her 42 year old son Richard were tending a cow which had just given birth to twin calves when it barged against the gate. The gate swung through 90 degrees and slammed into her, the blow rupturing a growth on her liver.


This is getting scary. This cow had worked out how to use cow tools (i.e. a door) to kill a human being and to make it look like a 'freak accident' rather than murder. Let's hope they don't develop opposable thumbs or anything. Like dolphins.

Thanks to JuliaM for the tip off.

Mark, you can't mention 'cow tools' without illustraing it with this

Banned, if I were a bovine, then I'd hate humans.

Now maybe they do, maybe they don't, but it's still good fun doing like the 'Climate Change Scientists' and constructing a theory on the basis of completely irrelevant, random events, i.e. ignoring the hundreds of millions of cows who are quite docile.

PC, good idea, I have updated.

What I want to know is this. Who told the cows about the dangerous growth on the woman's liver?

Is there an anti-human, pro-bovine group behind the scenes. Probably led by al gore. The clue is in the name. That and the fact that he's a chump, as petie manders would put it.

The cows seem to be plotting something

Seem to be a lot of cow posts recently. I'm one of the culprits.
