The great escape: Cow runs away from slaughterhouse to ride water slides

A brave cow's daring escape from butcher to freedom goes viral on social media
A now-famous cow destined for slaughter in Brazil went viral on social media after its last day on earth turned out to be its best.
In a bizarre but enthusiastic run for freedom, a cow set for a one-way trip to the slaughterhouse in western Rio de Janeiro managed to escape imminent death after making its way to an adjacent open-air swimming pool to relish the moment (YOLO).

In the videos, which quickly gained steam on social media platforms, the massive cow is seen climbing the stairs of a water slide and slowly sliding down into the pool.

Luckily, the water slide was firm enough to carry the animal's nearly-317-kilogram weight.
According to local media, the cow has been granted clemency by its owner as social media blew up with posts supporting the animal.
