The cows found themselves in an udderly ridiculous situation and hope their owners don't have a beef with them.
Dairy cows in Germany set their barn on fire after their farting and belching led to a deadly build up of methane inside the building, police said.
Gas levels from 90 cows reached unusually high levels Monday before dangerously reacting with static energy from a massaging machine.
It sparked a fire which set stalls at the Rosdorf farm ablaze.
The flames quickly spread and soon reached the roof.
One cow was seriously burned in the blaze. No workers were injured, however.
Firefighters arrived on the scene minutes later and brought the fire under control, according to The Local.
Police in Hesse state said it wasn't yet clear why such high quantities of methane had built up and that investigations were ongoing.
