    If you're going to criticise then at least know what you're talking about.

    We Have had plenty of beefies dropped at home. Had a couple times found the cleanup site not the paddock it should have been in. Just reckon shoot enough sooner or later you ll have a runner. Big animals are tough. They don't give up so easy. Things start and need to be finished . How could the P O stop after the first round ,he just had to get committed and finish it. After today he may make a different call but at least he made one . Seen worse at works when they had the odd runner.

    The hastings cops used to be well practiced at the stortford lodge sale yards when the Chatham Island cattle came in they often took a look around and headed to somewhere else

    Actually you were talking about Police training, rounding up a wild cow (which was shown to be impractical on the video), Police lack of common sense and some stupid colour based reason for shooting a cow. That one post spoke volumes about your lack of knowledge in the subjects you'd posted about.

    What did you expect them to do? Realistically.

    Maybe shoot and kill with the first shot?
