Johanna Report post Posted November 7, 2007 SPOKANE, Washington (Reuters) - A cow plunged from a 200-foot (61-metre) cliff onto the hood of a minivan on a highway in central Washington state, according to police. The car's occupants, Charles and Linda Everson, were not hurt in Sunday's accident, but the cow was euthanized at the scene. "If the cow had fallen a split second later, the animal would have landed right in their laps," said Jeff Middleton, criminal deputy of the Chelan County Sheriff's Department. Middleton estimated the animal weighed 600 lbs (272 kilograms), or the average size of a mature cow. It had been missing for two days and wandered 5 miles (8 km) from home near the popular Lake Chelan tourist area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rod and Denise Nikkel Report post Posted November 8, 2007 Beware of reporters who don't check their facts. 600 lbs the average size of a mature cow? Maybe a Dexter (a miniature breed)! 600 lbs is the size of a nice weanling in this area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
