ON THE LAM
'Faster than it looks' cow captured after two months in Florida

SURVIVED EVERGLADES, PYTHONS, GATORS AND COPS March 19 (UPI) -- Police in Florida said a loose cow that has eluded capture since January was finally captured by officers who lured the bovine into an enclosed area.

🐮 UPDATE 🐮
Last night our west-side midnight shift officers located the rogue cow, and were able to direct it into an enclosed area located in Davie. The property owner is aware of the cow, and agreed to have it stay within the fenced area until it can be safely removed this morning.
We wish the cow well on its future adventures.

The Pembroke Pines Police Department said the cow was spotted in the area of Sheridan Street and Interstate 75, causing officers to respond and guide the animal toward an enclosed field in Davie.

The property owner agreed to allow the cow to stay until it could be safely moved.

"We wish the cow well on its future adventures," the department said.

The police department said last week that the cow had been wandering the area since January, and repeated failed capture attempts revealed the animal is "faster than it looks" and is a "talented fence jumper."
