Scottish Highland Bull Roams Connecticut Countryside for Over a Month

The bull, named Waldo, has evaded capture since escaping from a farm in Kent, prompting local sightings and efforts to bring him home.

  • Waldo, a Scottish Highland bull, escaped from a farm in Kent, Connecticut, over a month ago and has been roaming Litchfield County since.
  • The bull broke through a fence shortly after being unloaded at his new home, where he was intended as a Christmas gift for the owner's son.
  • Local residents have reported sporadic sightings of Waldo, most recently in New Milford, but efforts to capture him have been unsuccessful.
  • Animal control officials have urged residents not to chase the bull, as he is scared but not aggressive, aligning with the breed's docile nature.
  • Scottish Highland cattle are hardy and well-suited for outdoor living, but the ongoing frigid winter weather has raised concerns for Waldo's well-being.
