        Friendly reminder that cows are one of the five most lethal mammals (mostly due to there being LOTs of cows, but meh)

            Sure, when you’ve got the societal and material advantage. Go 1v1 a cow out in a field and you might change your mind. Those things are up to 2,000 pounds of brick shithouse. You might not kill one if you hit it with your car.

              Given the number of deer that I have seen absolutely total a car/ semi, bounce down the road, stagger to their feet and bound into the forest, I don’t think there needs to be a might in that sentence. Deer only weigh about 400 pounds, and they regularly live through car accidents. The cow is just gonna moo at you.

          Also due to the fact that they weigh 3000 pounds and have feet as hard as a rock. Some of them even have pointy things coming out of their heads!

      I’ll have you know that my calves are strong and muscular and the nicest feature on my body and everyone is welcome to pet them. You know you want to.

      Psychopaths who don’t care that the calves are immediately being separated from their mothers for slaughter and for higher milk production.

      Trauma all around.

        Fake and not gay enough. Separating calves from their moms reduces, not increases, milk production.

        It has even been proven that cows have their clique and just their company affects how much they produce.

          It’s higher milk production when the milk that would’ve gone to the calf goes to people. I think that’s easy enough to understand and uncontroversial to say.
