One half of a mystery around the disappearance of two beloved hairy steers has been solved with the safe recovery of Rahley, who was found in a paddock.
Owner Michael Trenerry’s mission to recover his beloved bovine went viral across social media as he tracked possible sightings of the animal who vanished more than a week ago from Onkaparinga Hills.
It was around the same time as Olaf the speckled steer – weighing an adorable 60kg and standing about the height of a labrador dog – also went missing from a paddock at Barristers Block in Woodside.
Olaf is yet to be found, and Mr Trenerry has called for people to remain on the lookout for him.
Mr Trenerry said he received a phone call about 7pm Monday reporting Rahley had appeared in the caller’s yard.
“We 100 per cent know this person had nothing to do with it, and the mystery of how he got there is as big as the mystery as to how he left,” he posted on social media Monday night.
“We couldn't pick him up tonight, so we have a plan in place to bring him home tomorrow.
“We have no doubt at all that we got Rahley home due to the support of everyone that has shared and supported our posts.
“He became too hard to keep.
“However we have still not found Olaf, and we can’t finish this journey until he is home too.”
Olaf’s carer Julia Brown has been relentless in her search for the tiny steer, telling The Advertiser she was so grateful Rahley had been found but had mixed emotions about the news.
She has resumed the search on Tuesday morning in the hope to find the beloved pet which, as a steer, has no breeding value and his size makes him very unique.
She has already searched every inch of the Barristers Block winery and neighbouring paddocks to no avail.
