How is a finder to determine whether the objects he has found are truly lost? If he found a donkey or a cow grazing by the road, this is not considered a lost object. This is a lost object if he found a donkey with its gear overturned or a cow running through the vineyards.
If one returned an animal and it ran away, and this happened four or five times, he is still obligated to return it yet again because it is stated, "...return, you shall return them..." For missed work, he gets compensation only as a laborer. But if he stipulates his wage in court, he can get it.
