A runaway calf got loose in the Bronx, snarling traffic on the Major Deegan Expressway before being corralled and hogtied by dozens of police officers.
The 8-month-old calf was first spotted around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday heading toward the George Washington Bridge.
It wasn’t clear where the bovine came from, but there is a happy ending.
The calf, now named Major Deegan, is being put to pasture at the Skylands Animal Sanctuary & Rescue in Wantage, New Jersey.
Skylands founder Mike Stura told Pix11 it’s “as good as it gets.”

Unlike the fellow in New Zealand, and the fellow in Utrecht, this cow didn’t bother anyone, so leave her alone.
Looks like Parah Adumah !
