Rescuing a Newborn Calf: A Challenging Encounter with a Protective Cow

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

For some reason the Braford heifer calves always have good stories behind them and this one is no exception. This Brahma cow was super protective over her baby but the calf could not nurse from her. We tried countless times and finally brought her in.

    Wow! That's crazy! Thank you to our ranchers who we city folk never realized how difficult your job is! My rancher friend sent me this video. She said it's just a regular day on the farm. Yikes! I think I'll keep my office job and be forever grateful to all the ranchers who provide us meat nicely packaged in the store. I enjoyed the video and think some people back east need to see real men at work and support them.

    I can't BELIEVE that you did this alone!! 😮 Although your mama seems to be a bit more timid than ours! If we even tried to back up to a feed ring to do it like this, she would have done everything she could to get through it to get at us! It took three of us just a week ago to try to get one of our newest boys (just to band him), mama hit me so hard, she LITERALLY knocked me out of my shoes, smacked my head on the ground, suffering a concussion, then turned on my better half and barreled into him knocking him off his feet and proceeded to stomp all over him wherever she could! He has numerous MAJOR black and blue bruises on his ankle, both legs and lower back! And she was one of our more timid mamas!! But, we were back at it the next day because farm/ranch work NEVER ENDS! We have Black Angus. Had twins today and mama is only caring for one of them, she prefers the boy, I've got the girl and hoping she makes it through the night! Wet winter stinks for these babies!

    You do realise lab grown meat must have foetal bovine serum in the growth medium don't you? Otherwise nothing grows. That's blood serum from the blood of UNBORN baby cows. Also, the latest research has found lab grown meat is up to 25% worse for the environment than traditionally farmed meat. And you seem to assume animals are the only conscious organisms on this planet. Plants are now considered by science to be conscious and aware. Even Darwin identified that their root tips act like animal brains. They learn, problem solve, communicate and even share resources. And science now has evidence of fungi communicating through electrical impulses with one type observed to have a vocabulary of 25 different messages. It's human arrogance to think we know everything because we very clearly do not. And it's arrogance to believe only ourselves and 'higher' animals are sentient.
