The cow's on the loose

One (of the many things) that is nice in my neighbourhood, is actually the activities by the trash shed. People put out the old and used inventory of their apartments, and quite often, someone else comes and picks the things up and puts them in their own apartments. Chairs, tables, shelves etc.

I always look when I pass by the shed, if there is something nice. Ususally I look for pots for my plants, and sometimes there is something. Today, though, there was something that I have never seen there before. A cow. Made of wood.

But why? But who put it there? Who has used it, and for what? And why was it time to discard it now? So many questions...
