Electrocuted bulls under fallen power linesTwo stories:
(1) Bulls explode after power lines collapse Friday, May 29, 2009 http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Bulls_explode_after_power_lines_collapse&in_article_id=675288&in_page_id=2
Seven bulls exploded and caught fire after power lines fell on a dairy farm in New Zealand. The incident happened north of Auckland at Wilks Road farm. Dave Taylor, who leases the farm, said he got a phone call from his father who was driving along the motorway, telling him his cows were exploding.
'I found seven dead and on fire in the paddock,' he said.
Three bulls were electrocuted after the power lines fell and four were killed when they walked into the live area.
A hedgehog was also killed.

(2) There are some very practical reason why 500 kV power lines should not be on EFU land. The above picture shows what happens when a riser valve on a pressurized irrigation line breaks.
What would happen if a 500Kv power line were directly above this eruption?
