No effort spared in hunt for runaway cow Yvonne

The saga of Yvonne the Renegade Cow continues:

A "cow whisperer", helicopters and infrared cameras: no effort is being spared to find Austrian runaway cow Yvonne, who escaped slaughter in May to seek refuge in a Bavarian forest.

[. . .]

Yvonne hails from the southern Austrian province of Carinthia but was sold to a Bavarian farm where she was to be fatted up for slaughter before she escaped on May 24.

German police even issued a permission to shoot her after she ran in front of a police car, citing her as a threat to traffic.

The permission to shoot has now been postponed until August 26, according to the Aiderbichl sanctuary, which has been posting near-daily updates about Yvonne on its website.
