"Under Siege"

Excellent first-hand bovine attack report over at Newgatenews.

Thanks for the link.

While doing some research, I came across this example of a Darwin Award hopeful from 2004 which may be of interest:

"On the road to Plockton, I found a lady tourist from the Far East standing six feet from a Highland cow and her calf at the roadside. The tourist was flashing away taking a photographs.

There are huge notices up saying to beware of these cattle, which roam free. I stopped and said she should be careful when a cow has a calf, and that she could be attacked. But she didn't seem to take me seriously at all."
