They should breed this big guy to make an entire herd of these giants.

Since he supposedly doesn’t eat much, the feed to weight ratio should be excellent and since you can produce more weight with fewer animals, the economics of maintaining a herd should also be excellent.

Bad photo shopping. There’s no shadow for the cow’s left front foreleg in the first picture, the one that came with the article.
