In another shocking pit bull attack, a cow was attacked recently in UP’s Kanpur, with video of the incident making rounds of social media. The incident was reported from Sarsaiya Ghat, Kanpur, and comes at a time when attacks by dogs – both strays and pets – are on a rise. After video of the incident went viral, the civic body of the city seized the dog. Meanwhile, the cow reportedly suffered serious injuries in its jaw, and was rushed to the veterinary hospital.

In the video gone viral, a pit bull can be seen having its jaw locked to a cow’s jaw. The cow struggles and tries to somehow save itself. Amid the chaos and confusion, the owner of the dog and two others rushed to the spot to rescue the cow being attacked. However, the pit bull remained undeterred despite being hit by a cane.

Eventually, the pet dog owner and other rescuers took the two animals deep in the water near the ghat, and eventually, the two animals were separated and the cow was rescued.

Earlier in July this year, a 80-year-old woman in Lucknow was found in the pool of her own blood at the terrace of her home. It was later revealed that her pet pit bull had attacked her.
