The free -to -wandering herd of bison goes upwind, we left after that

Bison breeder Olli Hälvän The phone will make the reserved.

It’s no wonder.

Twelve animals from about 80 bison’s cattle have been on the way since Saturday and is the news of the kingdom. Reporters are calling and police exchange information.

The locals report on fugitive movements.

We are on Uukuniemi in Parikkala at the border.

There are only half a kilometer from the village of Niukkala to the village of Niukkala, but this time there is no danger that the animals are trying to there.

Biisons tend to go upwind, and now they have come from the West, from the Swedish direction. The wind has slowly taken the herd away from home. The animals of the Kuutostie crossed early Tuesday morning, and on Tuesday evening they had fresh observations from the boundaries of three municipalities and three provinces.

In the triangle, Parikkala, Kitee and Savonlinna and at the same time Southern and North Karelia and South Savo meet. From there, the animals had a home farm 15-20 kilometers on the home farm.

Eventually Hälvä answers.

It becomes clear how the animals got on their own way.

« The gate was forgotten from the workforce open. They were repairing the genuine and came out of a different place where they went into the enclosure. A human mistake, » Hälvä says.

Perhaps the gate went greener grass to look for twelve 2-3 year old bison. They weigh 500-700 pounds. They avoid people and do not try to get on, Hälvä says.

The worst is the risk of crash. There is a lively traffic on the Kuutosti Road, and on the Nuukkalantie leading to Uukuniemi on Kuutosti Road again, bend after the bend. The sixth road follows the train track.

Police have received reports of the bison’s road crossings and has also been in contact with them. There has been no need for anything else so far.

There has been no harm to traffic about the bikini like the life of Mannerheimintie. The songs have also been accustomed to the fact that the police do not consider those cows or horses to be strange.

“For us, notification if you see them on the road,” Commissioner Juha Hassel Guidance from the Southeast Finland Police Department.

« Otherwise, they wish they would be left alone that they are not scared and escaped away from home. The expectation is that the owner will get them back. »

No, Hälvä does not have time to show off what fugitive’s fellow fellow fellow fellows look. I suppose you have to leave the phone to the actual work, to remove the stuck tractor.

However, you can go to the shelter, but not the droon. Could the animals be shuffled?

Let’s drive to Hovilantie, where the road is closed by a solid gate. Next to it leaves a fence that shows six electric wires overlapping. Far away is a gray building, a yard, and black -brown spots on its corners.

We walk beside the fence to the hump. The drooling shouts and the bush pocket sings, the dandelion sores are dusting.

We get the pictures, but I would get a little closer. Far from the other side of the shelter there are houses. If you were driving there.

Travel For distant houses pass through the center of Niukkala.

There are two men in front of the K-shop and café. Purchase coffee and stay with them. Let’s talk about fugitives. One of them has a picture on their cellphone on Monday night.

The man says he is driving timber to the factories of Lappeenranta, Imatra and Joutseno. The work is done in two shifts and the morning shift starts at two at night.

« I was leaving for my turn, by car, drove to the sixth road in midnight.

The observation went through the bend to Hälvä.

« I called one village man, a hunter hole, an Olli friend. »

Village shop Opposite the corner is an old dilapidated commercial building. Its stairs sitting in a can of a grapple Erkki Hermanni Pöhö.

He also has information about the songs, not these fugitives, but from the previous time four years ago, when the village track was tapped on the entire width of the road with a herd of 20 to 30 animals.

Strictly speaking, Pöhö knows a person who has good pictures of a big herd. The number should be in the phone’s note:

« Tarja, Timo, Virpi-gold …, 020202 and call. It’s Fonecta. No need to browse v-« 

« The Uukuniemi village shop, Niukkala, join you there, » Pöhö asks when he first praised the eyes and legs of the customer service representative.

The former village trade of Niukkala is now hosted by Erkki Hermanni Pöhö. The building is at the intersection, where the runoons that had escaped were a large herd four years ago. Picture: Juha Metso

Erkki Hermanni Pöhö says he is Niukkala’s village crazy. « There is no official stamp of the crazy yet, but the next meeting will be posted. » Picture: ceremony

Come back to the store and leave the seller Riikka for Uimonen Own contact information. This promises to call if you find the pictures.

Let’s go after the bison. The right road is found, and the house is from. It lives in it with his wife a neighbor’s neighbor Oiva Berg. This shows where the path goes to the yard.

The spruce changes into a meadow, birch lined with meadow. The slope rises towards the shelter fence. The nettles burn the ankles. When stopping, a whirlwind of fly and sprouts twist around.

The fence makes a small bend, and suddenly they are ahead.

The tails are swinging and ears, insects can be frustrated.

Standing quietly, on both sides.

Retired farmer Oiva Berg’s yard is less than half a kilometer for the Bison fence. In the sky, Russia is transferred. It is four kilometers close to the distance. Picture: Juha Metso

Oiva Berg says he has been sitting on a harvester in the fall 60 in a row, but now is enough. He has memories of his own yard road four years ago. Picture: Juha Metso

By sale Uimonen has found old pictures four years ago. Then the bison made it to panic, as Oiva Berg said, « Susjhukkanen », the same perhaps that took three lamb from Berg’s daughter and son -in -law.

In the pictures, the herd is on the road in front of the shop.

« Came from the direction of the bison, a local restaurant.

The bison’s run -off ended four years ago when everyone eventually returned home.

Even now, as many others in Uukuniemi, they trust the happy end. The wind should turn on Wednesday night and at the same time the fugitive’s safety towards home.

Riikka Uimonen described outside the store how the bison four years ago they tracked the village of Niukkala. « Then it started to look too crazy about going, so sent inside. » Picture: Juha Metso

Correction 11.6. 3:35 pm: In the past, Olli Berg was misrepresented. The real name is Oiva Berg.
