Man, 75, Hurt While Riding Pet Buffalo

the headline alone really says it all but heres the story anyway....



MESA, Ariz. (AP) - Fire officials say a Cave Creek man who was trying to ride his pet buffalo was mauled by the animal after it bucked him off. The man, 75, was flown to a Scottsdale hospital after the incident at his home about 20 miles north of downtown Phoenix on Monday.
John Kraetz, a district chief for the Rural/Metro fire department, said the unidentified man suffered non-life threatening injuries.
The man owned two of the animals. Kraetz said he's never been on a similar call.
"People do have buffalo on their property, but it's pretty darn uncommon," he said.





what, was a dog too mundane? who the hell owns a pet buffalo? its really hard for me to feel sorry for this guy............
