Cow Sees Reflection in Window, Charges into House

A few years ago, I was chased by an irate steer through a backyard and narrowly escaped injury by scrambling over a neighbor's fence. Cows are not always docile creatures and should be treated carefully. This criminal record of this cow near Quickborn, Germany is a good demonstration. She saw her reflection in the window of a house, challenged this new rival to mortal combat and charged through the glass:
Passersby who saw the smashed glass called the police, who arrived to find the cow calmly chewing cud in the kitchen with just a few scratches to show for her mix-up. [...]
Police officers rang a local vet to help them coax out the animal out, who had made herself at home on the kitchen floor. The initial plan was to tranquilise her and drag her out of the house, the Die Welt newspaper said on Friday.
But being sturdier than the vet had calculated, the injections only annoyed her and she galloped out of the door compos mentis into the neighbour's garden.
It was there that the vet managed to sedate her and she keeled over, asleep, into some shrubbery.
