OK, I've just talked to my father regarding this specific point. He grew up on our cattle ranch and still holds a share in it. He said that's utter hogwash. and though he said he's tipped a cow once or twice him himself, he's never heard of a cow not being able to get back up as you have described. Take it for what it's worth.That, I have no first-hand knowledge of; I really never had reason to ask WHY they couldn't get up... However, I DO know that many farmers can tell if a cow is in trouble or is dead by the way it is laying. I don't know why they wouldn't be able to, maybe from all of the injuries they would probably sustain? I've just been told that, and I know that my uncle had to lift a couple of them back up after they were pushed over, and after they got up, they were ok. I will definitely look into it more, Pacfanweb... I would agree with you, I just know what I've been told in regards to that.![]()
OK
