Fluffy Scottish Highland bull on the loose in Connecticut town, evading capture for days

No bull. A Scottish Highland bull has been wandering Kent, Connecticut, since Tuesday after escaping from its home.

Efforts to corral the runaway bovine have been unsuccessful, according to a Facebook post from Kent Animal Control.

“He was last seen over the line in New Milford, but if he heads back into the Hollow, please don’t chase him!” the post said.

Jo Ann Joray, the bull’s owner, told NBC News on Thursday that the bull “is very skittish and will take off into the woods,” if people attempt to catch him.

Kent Animal Control did not immediately respond to NBC News’ request for comment.

Officials note folks should not be overly concerned about the escaped animal’s temperament.

“They are known for being a very docile animal, never showing any aggression and are very low stress to keep and manage,” according to Scottish culture website Highland Titles.

“Within their herds they have a great understanding of their own social hierarchy and never fight,” the site said. “They also enjoy the company of humans, often approaching walkers seeking affection.”
