Spotted by Mrs Erdleigh in The Daily Mail:
Trigger the Friesian was only a day old when his farmer aimed his shotgun at him - and because he did not want any more males he intended to kill the baby calf. But neighbour Shaun Layton stepped in, saved his life and now Trigger is 6ft 5in - and still growing! Weighing in at nearly 1.2 tonnes and measuring a staggering 14ft from nose to tail, Trigger is set to move into the record books...
"He is very good natured, a big softie really. But we have had him castrated and de-horned or he could easily kill someone. He's our family pet. We go and see him twice a day, feed him and give him his cattle cake. It's something I enjoy - you can just play around with him and it's quite relaxing. I can unwind with Trigger just like some people do if they go angling. We trim his tail and he loves being brushed. A few of the local farmers come and see him because his size and they can't believe it. Lots of people come up to see him - he's a bit of a local attraction now.'

or? what's with the or. It could still easily kill someone merely by sitting on them, ye Gods, talk about storing up trouble for the future.

Shortly to be followed by moving into the Home counties in the first phase of his giant cow plans for global domination.
Really when we are all kowtowing to our new Bovine Overlords, thes epeople will have no one to blame but themselves.
PC, my guess is, he's waiting until he becomes a tourist attraction, so that he can attack the largest number of unsuspecting people at the same time.
Footfall. They clearly watched too many Ferdinand cartoons in their childhood, wait till they have a couple of tons of irate potroast trotting around.
