Wandering cows test a rural region’s patience

In southern Greece's Mesa Mani region, stray cattle have become a growing concern for residents due to safety hazards and property damage. Malnourished cows, often untagged and roaming freely, have caused traffic accidents and damaged crops. Local herders allow their animals to graze unsupervised to reduce feeding costs, placing responsibility on the Municipality of Eastern Mani, which has not responded to inquiries. A local businessman reported a cow colliding with his vehicle while transporting his child, and a doctor noted a similar incident on a nearby road. Concerns over animal welfare and management remain unresolved.
