Supposedly the head is from the Wilson Dairy but I am not sure its the one that used to hang on the Dairy.

Wow I grew up not far from Wilsons Dairy off I-96! Always wondered were that cow head went. Where is this, east side I believe.... Jefferson or Mack? Someone know?

According to my files, the Wilson's Dairy cow kept guard over I-94 and the Jeffries since 1968. It was taken down in 1983 and put in storage because it had a lot of structural damage. At the time there were plans to restore it.

Here's a shot of the cow.
