Be careful, heifers! First the developers send a scout, next thing you know the local politicians hike your taxes, and soon they’re using eminent domain to pry you off your land so they can turn it into a holiday destination for anglers and waterskiers.
There’s a video on youtube of a jazz band playing and the cows in the next field come to the fence to listen. The band walks down to the fence line playing and the cows look like they really enjoy the music.
My grandfather always said they were nosy, have to see what’s going on. Ducks are the same. Our flock used to run to the fence anytime they heard a noise in the drive, then they would stand with their necks stretched out to get a good view as they made soft mumbley noises. We called it duck gossip.
Exactly. Heifers in a group are like a bunch of women in a shopping mall. They will follow each other around not really know why or where the hell they are going. BUT they are going.
I have see a bunch follow a cat in a pasture before.
Now steers will not do the same thing but of course they do not have their b@lls anymore. That may have something to do with it. If you ever had someone cut your b@lls out you are not so trust worthy anymore.
Actually, the cattle were provoked by a foreign animal getting that close to the herd. The beaver was walking away from them and they followed to get this “foreigner” out of their territory. There is an element of curiosity by the cattle, also. You can see this same behavior if a dog (single) or an armadillo or some other animal comes into their pasture.
following =/= herding
Wow, a beaver and his posse’......
Cow beavers?.......................
Thank you for your restraint.
If you had tied it in with that Antifa girl, who apparently has a pelt running from her hirsute butt hole all the way to her belly button ("from stem to stern" is what my Navy dad would call it), I'd be forced to recommend an intervention.
I’ve seen them follow a dog, the same way. Not that big a deal. I’ve also seen them chase after deer.
