Sounds like one of the weirdest lake incidents outside of the Lake Nyos disaster.

When did cows start growing horns? Wiki needs to get it together.

Some cows do grow horns.

That's crazy. The name of this lake was Cedar Lake. It was near the town of Hinton. Back then they called it a "geological accident."

Nope. Longhorn COWS have very long horns was his point. Often longer than the bulls.

I don't know what breed this is or if other breeds have similar characteristics so it may not apply... but I'm confident that is what I-45 meant

I know they're kinda common in Southern MO/Nothern AR....I believe there's a seismic zone there.

What's the point of this? Quakes come is swarms and those swarms can last years. Our second strongest recorded quake happened in the 1950s during a swarm.
