Photo: Michael CunninghamWhangārei police had an unusual call out this morning - a herd of cows were on the loose and running around a school field and nearby rugby paddock. Police were called to Horahora about 8am this morning after reports of cattle on the lose. The cows were first spotted in Hora Hora School and they then moseyed along to the nearby Hora Hora Rugby ground where police corralled the beasts. Hora Hora school principal Pat Newman said the beasts had kept the children entertained and it was lucky some members of the constabulary obviously had experience in handling wandering stock.
