The cows declared Cariva Planca their republic.
A real coup with horns took place in North Macedonia: one and a half thousand small cows arbitrarily occupied the city of Kariba Planka, roamed the streets like owners, destroyed fences, blocked roads and eagerly inspected other people's vegetable gardens and orchards. The herd organized a "planned felling" for one pensioner - the cows are already responsible for more than 150 trees.
This story lasted four years: the animals grew from 400 to more than a thousand. And the root of the problem is that the authorities planned to confiscate livestock from farmers, but never had time to do so. But the owners who tried to prevent the confiscation were arrested, and the cows were left to fend for themselves. Now the mayor is pleading with the government to impose a 30-day state of emergency - presumably to finally gather this fractious army into a fist and catch one at a time.
