Villagers pull-together to rescue pregnant Cow in East Pattaya

PATTAYA:--Villagers in Soi Boonsampan in East Pattaya came together to rescue an 8 month pregnant Cow from certain death on Wednesday afternoon after it became stuck in a deep hole at a condo construction site.

Rescue Volunteers were also called to the scene and devised a plan with villagers to rescue the 6 year old cow known as “Dang”, as its owner, Khun Samat aged 73, apprehensively looked-on.

While some began to tie ropes around the rapidly tiring cow, others were ensuring it was well watered following direct exposure to the sun for more than 2 hours.

Good news.

Well done to those who helped.

Notice how the owner was quick to blame the construction site,

But any way a happy ending for "Dang".

Probably the cow had no business being in a construction site, but still, it could have been a kid that fell into the water. As usual, the local government tries to cover their ass too, since no one ever inspects a construction site, so whos fault is it?

Christ, a simple cow rescue cannot go without it being some sort of conspiricy or blame game!!

The government didn't issue a statement yet. The cow Red of the witless owner Khun Samat running around freely is a greater risk for kids, and people, and traffic, than a secluded construction pit filled a with a foot or so of water. And why should they secure the site with a fence? Take a trip out to little elephant reservoir, there are drops of ten metres on one side, unsecured. Or the dump on top of Khao Talo, that's 20 metres down.

So, then maybe no one should make a comment on the news article? Of course it wasnt much news anyway.
