A cow has escaped being slaughtered in Switzerland by hiding in a children's bedroom.The animal ran into a house after escaping from a trailer that was to take her to the abattoir.
The animal rights group Humanitas heard about the case and have bought the cow to save its life.
The Swiss News website report the cow escaped as it was being put on a trailer in the village of Wolfurt to bring her to the abattoir in Bregenz.
The cow ran through the village, entered a house through an open door and hid in the children¹s bedroom.
It took the farmer nearly a whole day to get the cow out of the house.
