If you spot a bull anywhere in Singapore today, steer clear of it. Apparently, one just escaped from a dairy farm in Lim Chu Kang yesterday, prompting the Singapore Food Agency to put up a Facebook post last night warning people of the situation. It’s currently working with the National Parks Board to locate the animal, but the public is instructed “not to approach or provoke the bull.”
The steaks are high with this one, so don’t grab it by the horns if you catch a glimpse of it — whether on the roads or on a grass patch somewhere — or it’ll have real beef with you. Anyone who locates the creature should just report the sighting to the Animal Response Centre at 1800-476-1600.
It’s a serious situation, and we can all agree that we’re not going anywhere near the escaped bull if we sight it. Especially those who work around the area — this bull’s got no wings, so it can’t get far. But, since the opportunity has presented itself ripe for the picking, netizens naturally trotted in with puns galore, milking the situation for all it’s worth.
[Update: The black and white calf from Viknesh Dairy Farm is apparently out of its pen but still within the farm’s seven-acre grounds.]
