An errant cow is headed for greener pastures after being corralled by police following a two-mile chase through the streets of Queens.
-
Dubbed "Queenie," the brown and white bovine was captured around 11 p.m. Tuesday, about one hour after she was first spotted roaming the streets of Jamaica, Queens, said Richard Gentles, a spokesman for Animal Care & Control of New York City.
"We have the cow. We're taking care of her. She will probably go to a farm sanctuary upstate," he said...
In 2000, a young cow escaped from an Astoria, Queens, slaughterhouse. Her life was spared to live out on an upstate farm.
