Specialists examined the cows after their capture and confirmed the animals were in good shape.

The union says weather conditions over the last few days prevented the entire herd from being captured, so another operation will take place soon to catch seven or eight animals that remain at large.

In July, a herd of about 20 cows jumped out of their field and had been on the lam ever since. All previous attempts at capturing them failed, including a valiant effort by a group of cowboys from nearby St-Tite — a town known for its annual western festival.

The union says that over the last few days, various feeding points were set up in strategic locations along with fences and other devices that allowed the cows to finally be captured.
