( CNN ) -- A Lion Air Boeing 737-900 collided with a cow when landing on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia . The plane , on a domestic route that started in Jakarta , landed at Jalaluddin Airport in Gorontalo on Tuesday evening and hit one of three cows wandering on the runway . The aircraft skidded off the runway and the cow was killed , though none of the 110 passengers on board were injured . Several flights were canceled and the airport was temporarily closed on Tuesday due to the accident . Operations were resumed on Wednesday . Gorontalo governor Rusli Habibie told the Jakarta Post the airport suffered from inadequate fencing . `` Lion Air management has just told me that animals , particularly dogs , are often seen on the runway , '' said Habibie . `` This problem should be immediately resolved . '' Government administrators are due to meet with the National Transportation Safety Committee and Jalaluddin Airport officials to discuss ways to prevent similar events in future . In April this year another Lion Air flight carrying 108 people to Bali crashed into the sea after missing the runway . All 101 passengers and seven crew were evacuated with only a few injuries reported .
