A young calf was spotted looking injured in its paddock by a good samaritan in Gruyere on Tuesday 15 August.

Lilydale police were contacted and attended the scene.

The cow was put back into the field and fortunately did not require veterinary care.

1st Constable Robertson from Lilydale Police said that there was a hole in the fence that the calf had gotten stuck in.

“The fence has been repaired, the calf put back in the field and the owners have been notified,” he said.
