[Lion Den Dan]

Never lost a cow after dehorning. A neighbor did have a cow die while it was being done from a heart attack. We immediately butchered the cow.

You mean you immediately mutilated the cow. Don't think you used a machete though.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***Don’t think you used a machete though. ****

Do you know how hard it is to butcher a cow with just a two inch dull pocket knife and a handsaw? (Actually the woman we were helping had butcher knives in her kitchen, so we just skinned the cow and phoned the beef processor to do the hard work).

The person who wrote the PETA pamphlet must have gotten their ideas from APOCALYPSE NOW, where the natives butcher a cow by hacking it up.
