Bovine still on the lam in Roslindale; do not approach, authorities warn
Boston Animal Care and Control reported tonight that the cow or bull last seen near the Flaming Grill buffet on American Legion Highway in Roslindale continues to hoof it around the neighborhood.
Authorities asked that residents not approach bossie, described as brown and white, or attempt to chase the animal, but rather to call Animal Control and Care at
617-635-5348 or 311.
This morning, police officers who tried to track the animal said it was a bull, but Animal Control said it's a cow.
One startled witness reported Bessie, or as he decided to call her, Daisy, near Pagel Playground on Hyde Park Avenue on the Roslindale/JP line. Animal Control reported the former heifer was also seen at Stella and Harding roads in Roslindale, midway between Pagel Playground and the American Legion strip mall.

Public Beef
I say we nickname this one Kendrick
Phew!
When I saw "Bovine remains" I expected a much darker story!
So did I
when I saw "Flaming Grill Buffet". Are they known for having very fresh and rare beef?
They have hibachi service
Where you get a plate, pile it with fresh meat, chicken and/or shrimp and then a cook grills it for you, so, yeah.
"So rare ...
it's still mooing. "
Bovine remains
Headline changed, because you're not the only person to think that.
I appreciated
I appreciated the innocuous clever wordplay. The idea of the remains of a bovine being on the lam make for a much more interesting story.
Zombie cows
Our next plague.

Chapter 134. Lost Goods and Stray Beasts
Section 3. If, within three months after the finding of stray beasts, or within one year after the finding of lost money or goods, the owner appears and, except as otherwise provided in section two, pays all reasonable expenses incurred by the finder in keeping such goods or beasts and in complying with this chapter, he shall have restitution of the money, goods or beasts.
Section 4. If the owner of lost money or goods does not appear within one year after the finding thereof, they shall enure to the finder, provided he has complied with section one.
So in three months the finder may get to keep the stray bovine.
Ah, but let's not forget the notification section of the law
Can't leave out Section 2 of the Lost Goods and Stray Beasts law:
The proceeding section?
So if you find the cow, either report in to District E-13 (JP, where Bossie was first spotted) or E-18 (Roslindale/Hyde Park, which is where it was, so far, last spotted) or drop me a line about ad rates (going on the assumption that UHub would be considered a "newspaper" these days, natch).
Right.
Because first of all, somebody has to catch it.
If nobody else is gonna say it
then I will: This story is udderly unbelievable!
Go ahead
You're really taking the bull by the horns with that comment!
I find this story of daring escape very …
… mooving.
UHub should milk it for all it’s worth.
Not to get further embroiled in this topic...
...but I hope they find her soon. It's roasting out there.
You think ...
they actually might have a cow, man?
Freemartin celebrating pride?
Definition of a freemartin for those who want to believe that sex is genetically deterministic and binary.
We'll be hearing about this story
until the cows come home.
I'm at the Dairy Queen in Quincy

One startled witness reported
What - not named "Kelly"?
