A cow will eat just about anything they can get in their mouths. I’ve seen them eat plastic, rubber, bones and even old carcasses. They ain’t that cute Jersey Cow on the side of milk cartons. The majority of cows raised in the US come of of ranches and they’ll eat anything they can find. I’ve had them eat old pump jack belts, vinyl pop up blinds and even electrical wiring. I’ve got one in particular takes great joy in eating the spark plug wires off my Ajax motors while they’re still running. They’ll even eat other animals feces. They especially like coyote scat for some reason, they hit it like it’s Hershey’s Kisses.

Partially digested rodent bones. (Yum!) Good source of calcium and magnesium.

Note that rodents are particularly fond of wiring insulation in Toyotas. http://www.toyotaproblems.com/soy-wiring/

Never heard of a Cow doing that though.

Cows and wire and magnets oh my! (you know this, but others may not.)
