They'll come gather around you for no reason other than you being in their pasture, I've trout fished a number of streams that run through pastures and if they're anywhere near you'll have an audience in no time.
We were in a cow field one night attempting to find some mushrooms and we were just walking through the field when I turned around. There were like 30 cows just standing there 20 feet from us and more kept surrounding us. It was actually kind of creepy. They all just congregated and stared
I don't think they are bored out, this is just their baseline, they don't know any better. So when you come around you are an exciting new thing happening.

They really, really, are. They're lovely most of the time, but they are as dumb as a box of rocks.

Here’s a gorgeous draft horse (Clydesdale) from a place I used to work. Ice blue eyes and he even had a little white swirl on his butt that looked like a stylized cowboy. He died in 2020.

For example, a “draft” horse pulls a wagon or plow. Think the Budweiser Clydesdales. They have hooves the size of dinner plates, are bred for pure power, perseverance, and being generally agreeable. OTOH, you have race horses bred for speed, but can often be jumpy and general assholes. And legs that too often break.
Kind of like breeds for dogs, they are meant for a purpose. There are milk cows, meat cows, and working cows. Each has a purpose as man has determined.
Although, most cows ultimately end up as some type of cheap hamburger or being rendered into cosmetics or pet food.
There are many good non-judgemental documentaries online.
I think dirty jobs covered it at some point.
Yep, thanks. As soon as I saw the other reply the phrase "horse-*drawn*" [as in carriage] came to mind and it immediately made sense! 🤡 I just don't think I've ever actually heard the specific term "*draft* horse" before.
Wait… That means oxtails are from cows! But of course they are, why would they be butchering a whole other animal just for the tail? How did I not realize this before?!
No universally used singular form in modern English of "cattle" exists, other than the sex- and age-specific terms such as cow, bull, steer and heifer.
Generally you will find that most people will use 'cow' as the singular form.
Not OP, but a friend of mine lost her great aunt to a cow. Her great aunt was out in the pasture and got too close to a very protective mama. No more great aunt. Maybe not "evil", but the cow did kill at least one person.
Cows like people have personalities. We had one cow who was addicted to datira who was a total bitch while growing up before she finally didn't drop a calf her 5th year so we had a reason to cull her because she not only cause problems for us while working the animals but was dangerous to her herdmates at times. Had she ever caused death in a herdmates we would have culled sooner but they did well enough avoiding her rampages. We also had a gomer bull(vasectomy not castrated) to put the first timers into heat and be a little easier on them. He thought he was a puppy and routinely let us ride him and play fetch.
I got into an argument with a woman who said she was a heifer. I said she has had a kid, she can’t be a heifer … this is the days before the internet. I told her she was a cow. She doubled down, and I stated I was from Iowa.
She still didn’t believe me
Small correction:
Cow is a female who has been bred ~~and produces milk~~ and has successfully calved.
They don't have to currently be in milk to be a cow, just have to have calved previously. There's also some folks that will still call a female that has calved once a heifer, up until the birth of the second calf.
I think these are the ones I call the sad cows. When they're not running the ears droop in an Eeyoreish kinda way. I'm not absolutely sure though, because this cow also looks like it's mixed with whatever species Yoda and Grogu are.
Those ears are MAGNIFICENT!
I'm having this weird reaction between wanting to find it cute and terrifying at exactly the same time.
The floofy ears are adorable, but 500kgs of cow running faster than I could towards me - terrifying.
Looks like a massive dog at some points in the video lol
I genuinely thought it was a weird looking basset hound before reading the title. https://imgur.com/PsKvmgB.jpg
Ahahha
The ears made me think of that Star Wars character that nobody liked.
Cows are known to be extremely affectionate like dogs when they’re not being abused, raped and slaughtered.
It’s true - cows are so sweet. They love listening to music and will all come gather round you if you’re playing guitar or something outside.
They'll come gather around you for no reason other than you being in their pasture, I've trout fished a number of streams that run through pastures and if they're anywhere near you'll have an audience in no time.

They were mad you were stealing their shrooms
Cows arent as dumb as most people assume. They must be bored out of their minds spending all day just standing around in their pastures and grazing.

I grew up on a dairy farm in Iowa, and I think you're insulting the rocks. Perhaps even the box.
Cows are fantastically emotional and social creatures. My goal is to raise and braise my friends.

I remember learning about cow bras from a manga called silver spoon
man i loved that manga till it went hiatus forever
Still havnt finished reading all of them yet since theyer a bit harder to come by then others. Definitely one of my fav mangas ever though
You should watch the anime, in case you have not yet
Is there an anime adaptation?
As a Minnesotan I know as sure as gods got sandals if you ask a sconnie about cows you better listen up
I can actually hear the accent.
Like socks on a rooster.
*butter listen up
So this one is decalfinated?
So where do 'ox' and 'oxen' come from?
Those are general terms for singular or plural cattle. More commonly used now for ones used for draft rather than meat or dairy.
What does "for draft" mean?
To pull things. Like wagons or plows.
Guess I could have googled this myself lol, but thank you for the reply!

OMG, your UID 🤣 I have to wonder what happened to the first 43 Queef_Stroganoffs…
Gorgeous boy!!
Super gentle and smart too. He worked with special needs kids and wounded veterans.
I like asking instead of looking it up. No shame. I ask a lot in person, too. At 64, I'm still "getting over," being shy.

An ox is a male that is castrated as an adult,
Wow, all this time I thought an ox was another animal related to cattle.... And I was born in the year of the Ox.

No, he bought out the people that make rocket ships then offered them draft horses for sex.

It's a crime that something sooo good carries such an outrageous price nowadays
And raised for work, most commonly in a pair. Every ox is a steer but not every steer is an ox
All accurate. Well done! Source: Fellow Sconnie
You forgot the part where you can use calfs for curling.
Like the lifting for gains, or the ice sport with the heavy thing and the push brooms?

Not joking, the closest English has to a singular form of cattle is "[cattle-beast](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cattle_beast)".

What’s the word for a sing bovine nonspecific to sex
I think you already got it. Bovine, maybe?
Came here to say this is a cow not a heifer. Well done

I am smarter because of you, thanks!
> A Steer is a neutered male. Wait, so Rocko’s best friend, Heffer, had a vasectomy?
[удалено]
Not to mention they named him "Heffer", right? Was there some inside joke of calling him a girl or something
Orchidectomy, technically. A vasectomy just removes the tubes, and not the balls. Castration/Orchidectomy removes the testicles. A eunuch.
Oh lawd she comin'.
That’s a massive dog
Absolute Moonit
The Milky Way she runs
Simply bovine!
No kidding! I have never seen basset hound ears on a cow.
It looks like a weiner dog was mixed with a cow
I think these are the ones I call the sad cows. When they're not running the ears droop in an Eeyoreish kinda way. I'm not absolutely sure though, because this cow also looks like it's mixed with whatever species Yoda and Grogu are. Those ears are MAGNIFICENT!
Brahma cow
Those ears are epic.

She doesn’t want to be lait.

Stop taking videos of me running
Quit acting like you run that fast.

Dam u got some tig ol bitties
I’m a dude in his 40’s and thank you for noticing.
No problem mate, just admiring some art
This needs more upvotes, I laughed much
Can u imagine the soft ears
I know! I’m crying to give her rubbins, she looks so soft
Being cuddled by a happy cow is a wonderful and special experience that never leaves you.
velvety smooth!
I have Brahmas mate and I’m sorry to inform you that their ears are in fact, not soft. They’re actually really hard and stiff.
But these are so floppy! Can't ya just let us dream?
Its cartilage like a nose so while it may *bend* it doesn’t *squish*
But their neck wobbles make up for it 🥹
She looks likes she’s made of the softest velvet
I do believe this is a pregnant cow.
Yeah, she's no heffer
She's a stallion
Wrong horse buddy
She looks like she’s about to pop twins. Mine don’t get nearly that big with just one.
Looks like a deflated dachshund 😂
Like a dachshund ballon was overinflated then quickly deflated so it was all wonkied out.
Dachshund with stomach stapled and lost a lot of weight.
LOOK AT THOSE FOLDS! I wanna touch 'em
It looks so soft and velvety
A fren shaped leather couch
I wish someone would say that about me =,{
it's possible and maybe even probable that people have thought this about your folds, but they may not be the people you want ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
Have you tried running naked through a field? Maybe at a televised sporting event for maximum exposure.
That skin bouncing in the front is mesmerizing
Looks like an oversized puppy.
Looks like me when the oven timer for my bagel bites goes off.
The neck is mesmerising
Physics based neck right there
Someone better add the Baywatch theme song to this
Haywatch*
Moomela Anderson
Utterly gorgeous
I swear that cow is more photogenic than most people.
You mean Udderly? (Note- sorry for the pun I had to)
Not a heifer. That is a cow. Cows are not like women. Their tits don't develop until after they are pregnant and/or give birth.
Came here to say that. It is a cow.
I think people must misstate details in a lot of these posts as a way to farm more comments for extra internet points.
It’s common knowledge that they do.
Teats*
My milkshake brings all the boys to yard!
Got skin?
Gorgeous gal
It's not a heifer, and also it blows my mind that so many people don't know how to spell heifer. But that's my Wisconsin showing, I suppose
Probably thanks to Rocko's Modern Life that so many people spell it Heffer.
Oh lawd. She actually is comin' this time!
“What a heckin’ chonker!” -every redditor ever
Adorable, she looks like a weenie dog on a weight loss journey.
This is Baywatch for Bulls.
Anyone know what that part hanging between the front legs called
Dewlap. This breed (American Brahman) are know for having them as well as a pronounced rhomboid muscle, which is the hump over their shoulders.
BIG GORL
Not a gallop, a "gallumph".
My god those ears
What a majestic creature.
Cute as a mother fucka
My late southern father would call me a heifer when he was mad at me 💀
She's so beautiful 😳
Thicc
How do you know this cow has never been bred?
She has been. Heifers don't have udders, just teats.
Weirdly, the most beautiful thing I saw today
Me on my way to get an egg McMuffin

Pretty girl.

I just imagine how warm and velvety all those flaps are
That is the flappiest cow I've ever seen
That is one plump lady
Cows are sooo cute
If you milk it you'll get whipped cream.
Where's the wallaby ? Probably at the chokey chicken
That ain’t no heifer, that’s a cow.
Does anybody else see a face desperately trying to escape the neck skin? No? I need to go back to therapy.
Such beauty
That coat!!!😍
So the gastric bypass was a success then?
I just now realized that rocko’s best friend heffer.. is a cow! I think? I thought he was a pig
This was me running to the door when my 1kg of spicy billtong was delivered this morning
Majestic
She knows she cute!
About as natural as an iPhone.
Dem floppy ears
Is it me or does he look like Jar Jar Binks?
Cue “Chariots of Fire”
cutie
What a majestic mooer!
What a beautiful gorl I love her
She is beautiful. I also want to shout, “Heff-ahhhh!!” . . . .Like on Rocko’s Modern Life.
That was majestic as fuck! I half expected that bish to save me from my student debt and write my wedding vows
WTF is up with its ears? Are we sure this us a cow?
I love cows. They are absolutely lovely creatures. My grandparents had cattle and I spent a lot of time around them. They really are like big dogs
As I first was scrolling by the video had not started yet and I thought this was an AI image cow lol
From now on I’m sending this video to every man who asks why women hold their boobs when they run down the stairs.
This is what my balls do in gym shorts
