Escaped Bull Cow Takes Police for a Ride in Ishpeming, MI at the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame
Where's the Beef? - Hanging out at the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame – and that's No Bull: Upper Peninsula Police Corral the Impetuous 1,500 Pound Bull With Big Horns
By Greg Peterson, Upper Peninsula Breaking News
(Ishpeming, Michigan) - An escaped bull cow romped around the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame in Ishpeming early this morning – the outside thankfully – before being corralled by police from several agencies plus a vet, and a local pony riding business.
About 11 p.m. Friday night (8-8-14), motorists reported a large bull cow was crossing U.S. 41 in the city of Ishpeming – at the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame.
Ishpeming Police, Ishpeming Fire Department, Michigan State Police, Negaunee Police and the Marquette County Sheriffs Department spent over two hours trying to corral the 1,500 pound bull – with big horns.
A crowd of about 50 people gathered and clapped once the police and firefighters captured the 1,500 pound bull and got it inside the horse trailer – where it thrashed a few times before settling down.
After about two hours here, we did get ropes around it and got it on its side and got its legs tied, said Chief Willey adding the bull's horns were about “a foot to foot and a half long.”
“It had big sharp horns,” Willey said..
Around 11 o'clock one of my guys (police officers) called me and said they had a bull up on U.S.-41 by the ski hall of fame, said Ishpeming Police Department Chief Dan Willey. I asked him – a bull moose – and they said 'no a bull'.
After about two hours here, we did get ropes around it and got it on its side and got its legs tied, Chief Willey said. We have no idea where it came from.
“Basically it took us two hours to get the rope around its horns – and its head – and it wouldn't really let us do it,” Chief Willey said.
We tried to get a rope around it to hopefully get it into a trailer, Willey said about 1:30 this morning (Sat., August 9, 2014).
After about two hours here, we did get ropes around it and got it on its side and got its legs tied and its head held down and put it into a horse trailer, Chief Willey said.
One plan involved driving the bull back across the highway and – down second street north of the highway - into the fenced off Ishpeming Cemetery – but the bull made the big decisions.
“It had a mind of its own and it was going to go where it wanted to go,” Chief Willey said.
Several police officers could be seen petting the bull on its side while it laid in the grass about to be carried and pushed into the horse trailer.
“It was skittish – the guys were able to touch it a little bit,” Willey said. “But (initially) it really didn't let us get a rope around it – but with the help of the state police and the sheriff's department and Negaunee PD – they basically tackled it and put it to the ground, tied its legs off and held its head down,” Chief Willey said.
“A bunch of our officers jumped on it and got it knocked over on its side,” the chief said of the uninjured bull.
The capture happened along a hilly grassy slope behind the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame, Chief Willey said. We're going to go and untie it and let it loose in a corral in Ishpeming.
Iron ore train tracks atop an embankment and two narrow overpasses leading to downtown Ishpeming hampered the bull's attempt to escape further.
Shortly after arriving on scene, police called a veterinarian who called a local business that owned a horse trailer.
She (the vet) called me to get our horse trailer and I tried to help, said Bill Richards, owner of Pound House Ponies in Ishpeming – a business that provide pony rides on carts, sleighs and out on trails.
It was standing up and in good shape, said Richards of the bull that he hauled from the scene and dropped off at the nearby vets home.
The strange call left police officers with smiles on their faces.
It's kind of odd, I've never seen a farm animal like this before – we've had horses out here, we had a mother moose and her two babies (Oct. 7, 2008) – and that didn't end well, Chief Willey said.
Ishpeming police were criticized when a previous chief gave the order to kill the cow moose – leaving her babies motherless. Then Ishpeming Police Chief Jim Bjorne said he had to make the call because people were chasing the moose and her calves with cameras.
“My goal was not to hurt the animal and not to get anyone else hurt here,” Willey said.

Founded in 1887, the Ishpeming ski club just celebrated 130 years of continuous annual tournaments, making it the longest-running ski competition in the country, according to Gary Rasmussen, the club’s head ski jumping coach.
Kids as young as two ski with the club, often starting on smaller jumps when they’re three. Teens can work their way up to jumping the notorious “Suicide Hill”, a 90-meter ski jump located in Negaunee.
The club hosts youth ski jumping sessions for children ages five and up, lending gear such as boots, skis and helmets so kids can try it without parents needing to cover the start-up costs. Rasmussen visits local schools in the region to recruit young people to check it out, knowing they have many extracurricular activities to choose from.

Mystery Solved: Police espond to cow on the loose
The mystery surrounding the bull that wandered the property of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame has been solved.
Perhaps the most interesting discovery is that it was not a bull, but a cow with horns.
Ishpeming City Police Chief Dan Willey said the owner of the cow, a Calumet man, contacted Ishpeming City Police later in the morning of the cow's discovery.
The owner said he had been transporting the cow, and one other, downstate.
While passing through Ishpeming, he said believes the side door on his trailer popped open and one of the cows fell out.
He thinks the side door then closed itself.
It wasn't until he reached St. Ignace that he discovered one of his cows was missing. The Ishpeming City Police Department responded to a call just before 11 p.m. Friday of what was then thought to be a bull on the loose outside the Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame. Willey knew right away that this wasn't a situation that comes up too often.
