Russian tourist who 'tried to rape a cow' is gored by the animal and had to be rescued by police (photos)

A Russian tourist who allegedly tried to rape a cow was gored by the animal and had to be rescued by police in Thailand.

According to Mail Online, Evgenii Kuvshinov, 26, stripped off and moved to a female cow tied to a wooden fence in a field in Surat Thani, southern Thailand, yesterday afternoon.

The holidaymaker allegedly tried to mount the cow only for her to react violently, pinning him to the ground and goring him.

Concerned locals in the forest called the police as they heard his cries for help while being attacked.

Shocking footage shows Kuvshinov lying on the ground without any clothes as the brown cow attacks him.

Police and paramedics arrived at the scene and carried the Russian away on a stretcher. He was taken to the Bannaderm Hospital to be treated for wounds on his bottom and abrasions all over his body.

A paramedic from the Ban Na Doem Foundation who treated Kuvshinov said they suspected he had been trying to have s3x with the cow.

They said: 'We found cannabis in his car so maybe he was high. The way we found him, his actions suggest that he was trying to do something dirty with the cow, that he was trying to have sex with her.'

Police Lieutenant Thongchai Chaikit of Ban Na Doem Police Station Kuvshinov said they received reports of a foreign man in an 'altercation' with a cow on August 15 at 5.40pm.

The officer said the cow charged at the suspect when he was trying to restrain it by holding its head and he was 'lucky that the rescue team arrived to save him'.

Police Lieutenant Thongchai added: 'When we arrived at the scene, the suspect was being attacked by the cow. Witnesses said he had first gone to a male cow then over to the female and tried to climb on top of her.

'It's possible he was trying to make love to the cow but we can't say for sure. There was no semen on her.

'He kept walking and speaking Russian without any meaning. He had no smell of alcohol. In his car, there was marijuana and his passport torn apart.

'We sent him to the hospital because he was injured on his bottom, but he went crazy at the hospital and the doctors would not admit him, so now he is detained at our police station.

'Now we are waiting for the tourist police and the immigration police to work on it, then we can conduct an investigation.'
