Cow art proves a motorway treat for drivers

IT wasn't the grass tetany that struck down one of the special cows grazing the lush pastures of the long acre, beside the N7 in Co Limerick.

The cow lying 'low' beside the by-pass motorway near Annacotty has fallen victim to an attack of vandalism, which will require more than a dose of magnesium to get her back on her feet again.

Heavy steel was no deterrent to whoever attacked the cow, which forms part of the art work much admired by thousands who pass on the new €100m motorway each day.
