Very sad

I have seen several young dairy heifers attack a young teenaged boy at our farm one day -

Animals are unpredictable - especially if they know how humans act

A 6 month old Brahma heifer can turn on you too from behind - flipping them down and applying steel-toed boots is the cure - but you still will have some black and blue spots

I wore my Colt and would shoot any dog, bull, rattler, horse, or gator if it became a problem

We found large cougar tracks near the woods quite often

I’ve seen a Brahma cow attack an experienced rider and put a horn through part of the saddle and kill a fine quarter horse at a large ranch near the Everglades

You've told me about those heifers attacking before and it amazed me. I had told you of my experience of being surrounded by hungry cattle, lol.

Surprising story about the horse getting gored too. Makes you have more appreciation for Bull fighters!

I stay with Piper outside at night, never know what might come through the yard.
