You’d be surprised how quiet a cow can be when it wants to. Once when I was collecting a water sample in a pond I saw there were cows a fair distance across the field, and in the minute or so of stopping and squatting it took me to find a way to get the sample without getting covered in mud, a group of fully grown cows had silently crept up to within about 10 feet of me to stare at me like As soon as I stood up I was a person again and they lost interest in me. Definitely raised my heart rate a bit!
“Clever girl.”
that emoji is taking me out 😭
I love this story. Do you have any other interesting cow anecdotes or surprising cow facts you’d be willing to share? I’m a cow fan, but I don’t have much direct experience with them.
They’ll keep wanting to play when they’re under a year old even when they weigh 500+ pounds, which can be a little intimidating! They’re super curious even as adults, if you leave a large exercise ball in their enclosure they’ll chase it around and headbutt it. They also have incredibly rough tongues, like a cat’s tongue times 10.
Thanks, these are good cow facts.
They have a very rough tongue. Having them lick the inside of your hand is fine, but the moment they lick the outside of the hand or your arm once, it causes a small rash.
Statistically, cows pose a much greater threat to Americans than bears and sharks combined. Cattle reportedly kill roughly 20 people each year in the United States, while fatal bear and shark attacks average about two per year for each species.
I’ve been chased twice by cows here in Germany, not a single time by a bear or a shark.
Coincidence? I don’t think so!
Sounds like what the bear/shark-maffia wants you to believe!
I’m not paid to lure people into the woods or sea! Who said that?
i bet your shell is so hard right now, you dirty, dirty reptile
Oh you, stop it! I’m the one seducing you!
Sounds like exactly what the woodland/sea creatures want you to believe.
I’m on them, but they keep trotting away at a slow pace 😐
Well how many cows are killed by Americand each year? I’d say it’s more than fair game on the cows’ side.
Well yeah, that’s cos there are A LOT more cows than bears and sharks. Would like to see the death numbers proportional to the population numbers.
How else are they supposed to kill all those sharks?
Herd of cows evading authorities for months in 2022. Its now bien Turner into a musical apparently.
Cows are not stupid, grass is very tasty :3
Ah looks like I found my dog’s account!
Do not let cows be predators. That’s how you get the mad cow disease. Which means that these bells are medicinal.
That’s how you get the mad cow disease.
No. You get that by feeding them the ground up bones and brains of other cows that have been fed the ground up bones and brains of yet other cows.
What you get by letting cows be predators is a three movie deal with a possibility for a larger franchise.
