More than 30 cows were killed in a lightning strike in northern Alabama Saturday, according to local news reports.
The beef cattle had been sheltering under a tree at a Cullman County farm during a severe storm when lightning struck the tree, WVTM 13 reported.
A Facebook post from the local outlet, Cullman Daily, shows the lifeless bodies of cows underneath the tree.
