Dairy cow slips out for McDonald’s
BRUSH, Colo. (AP) — What did the dairy cow order when she got to the drive-thru window at McDonalds? Nothing — she just wanted a little attention.
That’s what Sandy Winn says was the reason her cow, Darcy, wandered from her pen Friday and ended up at takeout window of the fast-food restaurant a half-mile away in Brush, Colo.
Darcy is a good cow until she’s bored — and then she goes looking for attention.
Winn says she didn’t know Darcy had escaped her pen until police called asking if the family owned a dairy cow.
Frozen cows spur warnings in Colo.
ASPEN, Colo. (AP) — Federal forest officials want visitors of a Colorado hot springs to be very careful about what’s lurking inside a remote cabin nearby: Frozen cows.
Rangers believe the cows wandered into the cabin near the popular Conundrum Hot Springs during a snowstorm but couldn’t find their way out. Air Force Academy cadets found their frozen carcasses while snowshoeing in late March.
U.S. Forest Service spokesman Bill Kight said water samples have been taken to determine if the springs were contaminated by the dead animals. Rangers want the carcasses gone before they thaw. Options include explosives or burning down the cabin.
In the meantime, officials have posted warning signs about the cows around the hot springs near Aspen.
