There's plenty of animals in the state of Texas.

We've all seen an animal run past us in the Lone Star State haven't we? It could possibly even fly above us if it's say, a bird of some type. Depending on the animal as well, we might be awe, or perhaps a little scared.

But when an animal blocks our path, it might sometimes be hard to get it to move out of our way. I mean, trying to move a cow without knowing how to might be a little difficult right? Now imagine trying to move perhaps say, a buffalo!

That's the issue that police in Central Texas recently had to deal with. So what did they do? Call in the cowboys of course!

Cowboys Called Into Wrangle Buffaloes For Leander Police

The situation was revealed on social media by none other than Leander Police Department themselves:




 

According to the post, animal services was alerted to the two buffaloes simply enjoying the Texas summer. Thanks to a malfunction with the gate where they were located, Moonshine and Sundance simply wished to see what the Lone Star State had to offer to everyone it seems like. But, these two needed to get back to home somehow right?

To bring the lost duo home, police requested assistance from none other than cowboys and dogs. Per the post, the two were taken back to their home without incident, and their adventure came to an end. So in the end, the buffaloes have quite a story to tell their friends.

But to see cowboys wrangling buffaloes in this day and age would certainly be something wouldn't it?
