Amorous bull trashes Russian shop
The bull and his mate were not to be disturbed
A stationer's shop in a Russian town is counting the cost of a passionate fling involving a bull which followed a cow after it trotted in from the street.
There may not have been much china in the shop in Pionersk but eight panes of glass got smashed in the process, Russia's Interfax news agency reports. The shop assistant fled outside where help was summoned with a mobile phone.
Yet there was nothing for it but to wait for the "end of the act," after which the pair vacated the premises. The owners of the shop in the port on the Baltic, in the Kaliningrad region, were counting the damage on Monday as the owners of the offending beasts were sought, local police told Interfax. So shocked was the shop assistant that she forgot to press the shop's "panic button" in her haste to escape. Security guards and passers-by gathered in the street but were powerless to intervene.

from BBC News


You know those people were kicking around that store later that night, shaking their heads, and mumbling to themselves, "Those fucking cows..."

hey little fella, how are you doing today?: amused amused

is that for real?

because if it is, the real question is:

why the hell did they let the first cow wander in the door? it wouldn't have happened if they had maybe shut their door or been paying attention to what was coming through it. it's not like a fly or a wasp zipping in --a cow is pretty noticeable!

Re: is that for real?

Oh, it's real. To answer your second question:

How do you stop a 1,200 pound animal from doing anything? It wasn't a cattle prod store. It was Russia in the summertime. They opened the front door to get a breeze. I'm sure their AC was just on the blink.

Re: is that for real?

If they had AC to begin with... but it just seems like a cow is a langorous, slow-moving animal (not a langoustine, though that may also be langourous) and also docile: couldn't they have turned it away from the door before it came in? Maybe the bull was pursuing it. The mysteries of agriculture... or would that be faunaculture?
