Cowboys summoned for help when 13 cattle escape trailer on the highway

Authorities in Missouri called in a crew of cowboys for help when a highway crash left 13 cattle on the loose.

The Missouri Highway Patrol confirmed a crash involving two tractor-trailers on Interstate 70 in Oak Grove caused 13 cattle to escape from one of the trucks on Wednesday.

Authorities called in personnel from Butler-based B&W Land & Cattle to help round up the scattering bovines.

“We like to help out the ones in need,” cowboy Kolby Boos told KCTV. “It’s always a challenge because you never know where they’re at or how they’re going to be or if they’re going to be mad and want to fight you … You don’t know.”

The crew was able to wrangle all of the missing cattle.

The drivers of both vehicles were uninjured, the Missouri Highway Patrol said.
