...That I can't seem to find anymore. I found it when I was just starting to get interested in cryptozoology. It had to do with the Jersey Devil I believe. I believe it was a bridge photo of either before it went down or after. In this picture you could see a cow, or most of it's remains stuck up on top of a electrical wire pole maybe 20 feet up? People claim no one could have done that, since the cow weighed so much. So of course the Jersey Devil did it. Anyone know what picture I'm talking about and the true story behind it? It always baffled me to this day.

Hi there,

I found the photo your talking about... Unfortunately I recently got in 'trouble' for posting a photo on here that I didn't have the 'rights' to, so I shouldn't post the photo here.

I found it by typing into google images 'cow on phone pole jersey devil' -It came up on the first page of images, the actual web page that the photo is on, has been removed from the web, so you can't click the photo and go to the page, but the actual image still comes up in the search!!

So if you type that exact same search words, then you should find it

I found it, here's a link to the search page, it's in the second row: http://images.google.com.au/images?hl=en&a...devil&gbv=2

This picture is very strange, I have no idea how that cow could get up there, but I don't know if it's the Jersey Devil.

Wow I wonder how that cow got up there.

Aww, wonderful. Thank you so much everyone.

There are some pictures of a deer lying on a communications pole on Snopes. It landed there when it got hit by a train. Maybe that happened to the cow as well.

This claims to have gotten the pic from the same links as above that no longer exists. Maybe it has some info about where to get a better copy of this pic?

thats not a "full cow" if you see what i mean. there are no bones or innards bar the skull which looks to still be intact inside the skin. im guessing its a prank. I dont thinks its impossible for somebody whos quite strong to swing that around using the head as a counterbalance and gain enough momentum to swing it into the air and over the line just as hammer throwers do in athletics.

So...It dosn't have to be a full cow.

someone would have to be out of their mind and very sick to do something like that. they should have gotten arrested if they did do that

DW Mayaka, I highly doubt someone would go to the trouble of climbing up a telephone pole carrying a cow to balance it on top of the pole

So thats what happened after it jumped over the moon.

That was hilarious, good one!

Btw, what manga/anime is your avatar from? It looks interesting, the guy with the axe thing looks a lot like Alucard from Hellsing.

It looks like a statue, with antlers attatched?

nailed it, not to far from tossing a bear skin rug.

Wrong one. It's a bit farther down, looks like a nasty, old, skin draped over a telephone pole. (It's in black and white)

Hmmm, strange. Is everyone sure it's a cow? Could it have been some other type of animal? I guess it doesn't really matter what animal it is, but it definitely is strange. Sounds like a prank, to me, but how would they do it? Who is able to haul a nasty old mutilated cow body up to the top of a telephone pole? Could they have used a ladder during the night? Climbed a tree? I can't think of any natural causes.

Nice

I just moved from living literally in the jersey devils back yard, my 30 some acres of land was right beside the pine barons, I've herd this story before, and it was believed that a farmer with a bucket ladder went up there and did it, he was suppose to have made it from a tractor he had, i don't know if that is the truth either, but it sounds more like it to me than the jersey devil did it, anyway, to true story of the jersey devil is that he is a protector of the pine barons and not evil at all.
But yeah, a person did this, there's soo many ways it could have been done, i mean seriously the Egyptians built the pyramids with hardly no tools at all, and lifted tons of stone, so i'm pretty sure some farmer or back woods red neck in a drunken stupper could come up with a way to do this, by simply roping him up there or using something a little less involved.
