"But it's also not clear whether this hypothesis is true or even if this hypothesis can be tested."

Well then why propose this theory?

Cows never struck me as meat-eating carnivores.

They might step on your foot or slap you in the face with a sh*t-encrusted tail, but they wouldn't be suspected of chowing down on you.

What sort of thinking could possibly have gone into this idea?

Carnivorous cows - not such a hot concept, after all.

"But Cashman wondered if there was any way to prove or disprove the theory, noting it might require feeding infected human brain material to cattle - an experiment the public might not tolerate."

Perform the test in India. The public there doesn't seem to mind since it might already be happening.
