Bavaria: Unknown puts cow watering troughs under power

Lindenberg (dpa / lby) - An unknown person has repeatedly electrified water troughs on a cow pasture in the Allgäu and gave the animals electric shocks. So far, however, none of the cattle has been seriously injured, said the Lindau police inspection on Saturday. Between September 26 and November 6, the farmer noticed several times that the electric fence on his cow pasture in Lindenberg (Lindau district) had been cut and the loose ends had been placed in the animals' water troughs. The police are now investigating the unknown perpetrator or perpetrators for violating the Animal Welfare Act.
