The Big Cow, Toowoomba QLD

What a surprisngly impressive BIG THING! WOW! It was incredible detailed; it was incredibly large (Even though cow's a large) it made a memorable impression. To top things off, the creativity and effort behind this attraction is amazing - you can enter the inside of the BIG COW via stairs! Highfields, Toowoomba feature one of the highest Ranking BIG THINGS in the country and it is definitely worth the trip and the entry fee. The BIG COW didn't always reside in Highfields. It was originally built in the 1970's and was featured on the Sunshine Coast. Since relocation, it's had a new paint job (very realistic) and a good touch up.
