Default Cow Struck by Lightning

We had a really bad electrical storm yesterday and I was on the computer as our cable went out and I wanted to look a NOAA and see when and if it was going to end. I hate storms, they scare me at times. Well, there was an ultra big flash and BOOOOMMMMM!!!!! Lost electicity over it. Well, found out that just across the street and I mean directly along the fence line a cow got struck by lightening and died right there. I feel bad for the cow, hope it died fast. But...they had to leave it there to wait for insurance man, I asked as when I looked out my front window there was a cow all distorted 30 ft at best from my window, was really disturbing. I have often thought how do cows not get struck by lightening, now I see they do.
