[RAT]

What do you think was the frist sound that came after that cow got hit?

Would you like fries with that? :bonk:

[maddmike]

look at the bright side

i'd rather hit a cow than hit a moose.

[RAT]

Is there a bright side to hitting either one? Besides all the free meat!

moose weighs 1500 pounds. cow weighs 800. look at the pictures and do the math.

[Rubigirl]

I feel sorry for the cows, I hope they didn't waist all that good meat though!

looking at this picture for a second time is only now making me laugh like hell. pretty good one.

Where did this happen ?

I don't recall exactly where it happened, but I believe the license plates show Ontario (Canada, eh!). If I recall the story correctly, the lady driving only ended up with a broken arm, along with some bumps and bruises.

[Mtbikbob]

No disrepect intended here.... but the meat is already loaded on the car.....drive it home. Finders keepers.
Glad the driver was not seriously hurt.

[Giffer]

about you rather hitting a cow then a moose, bad idea. the moose has a chance of going over the car dew to the lenth and hight of its legs, but the cow..... your screwed.
