Farmhand left paralyzed after being attacked by horny bull

A Connecticut farm worker was left paralyzed from the waist down after his family said he was attacked by a bull “in heat.”

Randy Jaquins, 59, “was in the wrong place at the wrong time” on Friday when a bull charged him while he was leading several cows back into a barn after milking them.

“The bull was in heat because it’s their mating season at this time of year,” Jaquins’ sister Ellen Hull told Hearst Connecticut Media.

“Randy basically was in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Jaquins, of Winsted, Connecticut, suffered a broken neck and is paralyzed from the waist down.

The farmhand told his sister he was lying in the farmer’s field for “quite some time” before someone found him.

He was taken to a local hospital, where he was left with partial paralysis after doctors fused vertebrae in his neck.

Hull later visited her brother in the hospital and said he was conscious and able to speak.

“We are all hoping this will be temporary but are preparing for the worse,” Hull wrote in a description of her GoFundMe campaign seeking donations for Jaquins’ medical and living expenses.

The breeding season for bulls begins in the spring or early summer, during which time the animals often become territorial and especially aggressive, according to experts.
