Lightning Kills 44 Cows In Nigeria

Eight cows have been killed by lightning while grazzing atop a mountain in Ondo State, Nigeria on October 22, 2019.

Immediately after the cows were struck dead, the two Fulani herders rushed to the butchers in town and sold them the cows for a cheaper price.

But they were later arrested by the police as the flesh is considered ‘contaminated’ by environment health officers.

This happens roughly a month after more than 36 cattle also calcined in a nearby sacred site of the Ondo State. – PunchNG

Such deadly lightning storms are kind of worrying. Imagine being electrified like those poor cows! Terrifying!
