I don’t know where they came from. I don’t know what they represent. But I do know they are pretty awesome. Yes, I’m talking about the cattle that have taken over a couple of our local malls. Ok, one of the malls has a new Spanish themed section complete with some “running of the bulls” sculptures. That sort of fits with the whole theme. But these guys in this post are scattered around the huge mall that was just completed a few months ago and is located about a twenty minute walk from our home.
Maybe somebody is cranking them out and dumping them off at malls across the country. Personally, I haven’t seen them anywhere else in our travels around China. But whoever came up with the idea has a flair for patterns and designs! These brightly colored bovines are a magnet for little kids to clamor over and under, and made for a great photo op on our way to Pizza Hut tonight. Yeah, we do break down now and again for good old Western fast food…
Anyway, enjoy this little look at our roaming designer cattle!
They did this in Calgary a few years ago. Calgary has nickname Cowtown. Tourist thing.
I wonder if they were Made in China!
