Four cows made a run for it in Florida Monday after their trailer stopped at a red light, and the door came open.

Agricultural deputies with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office responded to help wrangle the wayward bovines, officials said.

The cows were rounded up a short time later and reloaded onto their trailer.

“The trailer door was fixed, (so) it shouldn’t happen again,” the sheriff’s office said on its Facebook page.
