Almost 200 cows are roaming free in New South Wales’ mid-north coast after floodwaters swept them away from their Mondrook property.
Owner of the cows, Peter Bowie, has begun the process of retrieving the animals. Some of them have been found fifteen kilometres downstream from the property.
Bowie says many of the cows can’t be reached due to floodwaters.
One cow ended up in Taree resident Harmony Burton’s backyard. Burton says the cow, nicknamed Bruiser, has become a welcome guest at the household.
