  A jet carrying 110 passengers skidded off an Indonesian airport's runway after it hit a cow on landing.
The Lion Air aircraft careened off the airstrip in Gorontalo, Sulawesi Island, 9 p.m. Tuesday after smashing into one of three cattle that had bypassed security. (Naughty cows! LOL)


Pilot Iwan Permadi said he smelled "burning meat" as the plane swerved into a neighboring field.

A generic photo of cows. The condition of the cow is unknown.
