Farmer Protects Animals With Orange Paint 49 minutes ago
LOGANTON, Pa. - With deer hunters out all over the woods, a farmer has decided to paint his cows, horses and even his dog bright orange to make sure they aren't mistaken for deer.
Friz Konieczka doesn't want to take any chances because he heard about a neighbor's horse being shot during hunting season several years ago.
Konieczka, a Clinton County farmer, wants his animals to stand out — and they do. Fluorescent orange paint lines their backs and heir sides.
Konieczka said he'd rather spend $5 for a can of orange paint than have one of his animals killed or injured.
He painted his horses, his cows, his goats, his turkeys and even his Dalmatian, Buddy.
