Cattle were on the loose near Kansas City, Kansas on Friday afternoon. Yes, you read that right. 

It all happened after a rollover accident carrying the farm yard animals on a highway in Lenexa, Kansas, a suburb of Kansas City. That area was also closed off while police wrangled the cows. 

The steaks are high! As of 1:38 p.m., officials said 20 cattle are still on the loose. There were a total of 89 total. 

Watch a live feed of the cow takeover:

Many people took to social media to share video and commentary of the unusual sight. 

 

 

 

If you see a cow on the highway, mooooove over! (Sorry, that's the last cow pun!)
