Cow got head stuck in ladder

A mother and her son were on their way to school in Hamilton, New Zealand, on Friday morning when they saw a young cow with its head stuck in a ladder.
Karen Arden was dropping her nine-year-old son Harry off at Horsham Downs School at around 8:30am when they saw the stuck bovine in a neighboring paddock. "I did consider getting in there to help, but they're about 1 or 2 years old so they run away from you.
"It would take teamwork to get it off." Where the ladder came from is a bit of a mystery, with Ms Arden saying there was no obvious place it could have come from – there was no shed near the paddock and no obvious work was being done in the paddock.
When her son had seen the cow, he was "quite fascinated" by it and his first consideration was its welfare. "[He said] 'Oh, mummy that poor cow he wouldn't be able to eat anything." Ms Arden said the owner was called to help free the cow and believes it has since been freed.
