  >But the PvdD, which has long opposed the experiment, has started a social media campaign raising its concerns about animal welfare, after a second cow fell into the water and had to be rescued on King’s Day. It is believed that the animal was crossing from the floating platform to a small area of grassland for the cows on the dockside, and could not climb out. Oh bummer, it's really hard to get a cow crane on Kings day, they are all tied up rescuing drunks from the canals. Surge pricing, owch!
