A startling photo is circulating on X - a cow with a large plank of wood jutting from its body. How did it get there? A tornado swept through Wisconsin on Friday, and high winds sent the 2x4 hurtling through the air like a spear, impaling the bovine creature. Amazingly, the animal survived.
Now, one X user is soliciting a new name for this curious cow. (READ)
This cow in Wisconsin survived being impaled by a 2x4 during a tornado yesterday.

We’ll start with one of the best proposed names.
Moo by Four.

I legit laughed out loud

That’s pretty good.
This next one seems obvious, but is still funny; they throw in some extra names, too.
It has to be Stake

but if the tornado had taken its legs its name would be Ground Beef
and if the tornado had taken only the legs from one side, it would have to be Lean Beef
Ground beef 😅

It's a beef stick
