Rebellious Cow Finds Winter Home Among Polish Bison
She has been spotted twice on the outskirts of Poland's Bialowieza Forest. She appears to be healthy, but she'll need to be removed from the herd before mating season.
The Bialowieza Forest, which spans 350,000 acres between Poland and Belarus, is home to a vulnerable population of about 600 bison. But this winter, the forest also became home to a reddish brown cow who decided to escape domestic life for some time in the wild. Poland's reports an ornithologist first spotted her in November, wandering the outskirts of the forest with a herd of about 50 bison.
