An inquisitive York cow managed to get itself wedged into a fence – but has been rescued by firefighters.
A crew from Acomb were called out at about 11.30pm last night after the cow was found entangled in a steel fence in the field behind York Cricket & Rugby Club on Shipton Road.
An RSPCA inspector called in the brigade.
Firefighters used wire cutters to snip away the fencing from around the cows back legs.
A vet also attended and checked over the cow who appeared uninjured.
Thanks to whoever helped the cow! Thanks to YorkMix for publishing so we knew about it! We found the large hole in the new £1000 fence today along with the padlocks to the access gates having disappeared since Sunday. The cows are now on their way home for the winter…
