Spotted by Thomas Hall in The Plymouth Herald:
The young bullock was found tightly wedged by a visitor at National Trust property Trelissick House.
Staff at the property in Truro, Cornwall, were quickly alerted and it took two hours of removing branches and chiselling away at the tree for the bullock to finally be freed...
"We don't know why he put his head in there, but another cow has been back to the same spot so there must be some nutrient in there that they like. The second cow also got stuck but was freed easily as we had already widened the hole the first time around."

What on earth was the visitor doing, tightly wedging a bullock?
More bovine mayhem.
Probably a dead drop which the humans have made easier to use.
Had this happen on my dad's farm. I spent an hour getting the damn thing free and then had to run like a bastard for the gate. Bullocks don't do gratitude.
Perhaps the cattle were bidding for Leadership of the Labour Party?
I object to rescuing cattle with their heads stuck in trees. Mother nature’s way of boosting the IQ of cattle is to dispose of those who do silly things like getting their heads stuck in trees. If they’re rescued, cattle’s IQs will decline, and that would be the end of civilisation as we know it.
RM, look at this:
