A wise man once told me, "theres two types of stock, livestock and deadstock". I get the bluntness, but sadly the herd here are extensions of the family.
Sadly had to put down our original girl Mocha, had here almost 13 years but sadly illness neccisitated her to be sedated and put down.
For anyone that says cows or other farm animals are dumb, clearly has no idea. Mochas friends stayed near her the whole time, belowing and urging her to come with them. A mooving vigil. (Pilun intended for light humor).
Her bestie Daisy usually the calmest and easiest cow was clearly distraught, barreling around the paddock like a tantrum.
Very somber and moving behaviours to observe.
