From The Sacramento Bee:
In the second bizarre incident at the State Fair in a week, Cal Expo police shot an agitated, pregnant dairy cow that twice escaped her confines and knocked over an officer as she bolted through the fairgrounds Tuesday morning.
Neither the cow nor her calf survived the shooting, which occurred an hour before gates opened to the public.
Ultimately, the roughly 1,200-pound cow became a threat to thousands of employees already abuzz in the fairgrounds, police and veterinary officials said. They agreed she had to be put down after a 1 1/2-hour chase...

"Wilson said the cow's behavior was not typical of a pregnant cow..."
Oh, really?
JM, indeed. They don't normally turn violent until after the calf is born.
