NDOT crews help corral cow ‘on the run' near Las Vegas freeway
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Some crews working on an I-15 road project took on an extra assignment as temporary cowboys to help capture a cow on the loose near the freeway. The cow had reportedly been seen roaming near Speed Vegas, south of the city near the Sloan Road exit for several days. Animal control attempted to capture the cow Monday around 10 a.m. but the cow made a run for it 'taking off down Las Vegas Boulevard and even attempting to enter I-15 via the Sloan Road off-ramp,' according to Kelsey McFarland with the Nevada Department of Transportation. An NDOT crew working on the nearby I-15 South Widening Project quickly jumped into action when it became obvious the cow didn't want to participate. 'Avoiding udder chaos! NDOT crews helped corral a runaway cow that was mooooving a little too close to traffic near Interstate 15 and St. Rose Parkway,' NDOT said on an Instagram post. At one point, the cow took off in the direction of the M Resort and the NDOT workers used their vehicles to help stop and corner the unwilling cow near Las Vegas Boulevard and St. Rose Parkway where animal control was able to capture it. 'Thankfully, there were no cowlisions and this bovine was brought to safety by animal control,' NDOT's post on social media said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
