Cows on the catwalk

Written by 

Just when you think you've seen all the beauty queens another appears, but this one is a cow.

Miss Milk Cow 2015 was crowned in an annual cattle beauty contest in the Moc Chau district of Vietnam in mid October.

126 cows paraded and the winner's owner, Mr Li, took away six million Dong (£174) in prize money.

Local media report that the 126 competing cows were chosen from 18,000 reared in the region. Each was cleaned and decorated with ribbons and bows.

Judging criteria included physique, which prompted some farmers to fashion the animal's tails into weird and wonderful shapes.
