Warning: cattle rant. I expect better from you poal and I'll tell you why.

Of course my first post since leaving voat would be explaining this stupid video to people who are going to get themselves killed if they're around mother cows.

First off, that title is absolutely wrong and sensational garbage. That cow is pissed, tired, stressed, and when she sees that guy who decided to toss up a camera first, instead of helping the calf first she's in an even more pissy mood.

Indicators: She shits upon seeing this SOB. This is a defensive mechanism, her body and mind are saying, "I'm in danger," so it drops whatever it can as quick as it can just in case she has to run. The fact that she does immediately upon this guy showing up is a HUGE indicator. You can tell she'd been having the stress shits for awhile because of how colored her ass end is. The fact that she did it immediately on that gent entering her bubble should be a major sign. The pawing the ground is the 2nd sign. Seriously people bulls do this shit as a warning to others that they're going to fuck you up, cows can do the same. Read a fucking kids book. Clearly he's not leaving her and her calf alone so she's got it in her head that she is going to stand her ground instead and paw the ground as a warning not to get any closer.

That calf was clearly nice and cleaned off and ran away pretty well so at the least the calf should be 4-6 hours old maybe more. So the mother's hormones from birthing should've had enough time to dissipate, this should worry people even more because that cow is thinking without hormones, and still wants to beat the fuck out of that guy.

Next up. The feeble fucking push under the fence. At 13 if I sat there gently pushing on a calf with the strength of a 6 six child whatever adult was around would've been bitching the adrenaline into me so fucking bad I would've tossed the little fucker over the fence. When dealing with calves and mothers get in, do what needs to be done, AND GET THE FUCK OUT.

I'm going to summarize it this way. That idiot was only saved because the cow clearly feared that fence more than she perceived that man as a threat. Just the fact that he set up a camera and film this act of idiocy instead of immediately helping shows you that he's never been around animals. He should've either 1) helped the calf under/over the fence and gotten the fuck out of the there OR the best option 2) find the fucking farmer and let them do their job.

Videos like this are why I'm installing 7 strand, 5.5ft barbed wire fences and reenforcing them with electric wires on the inside. Not just to keep the cattle in but to keep the idiots out.

Source: I'm a beef farmer, and you all are going to get yourself killed and a farmer sued if you believe even half of what's in that video.

This. People don't realize how dangerous cows can be.

Plus why is this plebbit tier shit on the front page here? Downvoated the videos because it seems more like spam wasting resources than anything. Upvoted your comment because you actually explained why this was stupid.
