I once saw a video of a dashcam. This guy is driving out in the farmlands, but the roads were twisty like a pretzal made by a drunk guy. And this driver is a real piece of shit. He’s doing like 70 down a twisty road that he can’t see the next turns sometimes. Well he takes this turn real hard at 70, but immediately after the turn, the road turns the OPPOSITE direction almost immediately. At those speeds, and with those hills, his car goes flying over a fence, into a private farm, lands just before a cow, but the momentum carried his car into hitting the cow. I checked the frame by frame gps display. He hit the cow still at 50mph even after hitting the ground first.
This cow goes down HARD. He let out this little whimper noise. The description said the driver died. I ASSUME the hit cow died. But right after it happened, this one cow comes trotting over. Kinda slowly at first, and then with great emergency once it kind of grasped what had just happened. Then she starts moo’ing like crazy, and suddenly dozens of angry cows come running over the hill. They all surrounded the hit cow, and the first cow is just nuzzling it’s head with her own head. I know it sounds crazy, but I swear the emotion there was like the first cow was trying to wake up the hit cow. Then this herd of cows starts angrily mooing at the car. I swear it was like they understood that the car was at fault, and they were pissed. They started running at the car, bashing it with their bodies. The guy inside, was either already dead, or died later with EMS. I’m not sure which.
I just know it was like these cows were a community, mourning the dead, and angry at the killer. And they were COWS!!!
I just wasn’t prepared for this cow trotting over slowly at first, and then into a full run as she realized what happened. Then finally nuzzling the end of her mouth into the area under the victim cows head. Like she was trying to lift it.
It was like she was saying “Phil? What was that noise? Phil? Phil??? PHIL!!! OH GOD NO!!! PHIIIIIILLLLLL!!! NO! NO! NO! NO! PHIL TALK TO ME!!!”
And now you’re saying that’s basically what did happen.
Someone show this to the guy who asked about how to walk through a field of cows.
A picture of a dog’s head resting in someone’s lap doesn’t mean they would act the same around a stranger. Same for cows.

That isn’t crazy. Tons of social mammals do that, including cows.
Cows make best friends. You probably saw a cow who just daw her beat friend die.

And the cult of the dead cow was born!
All hail MooCow!
Got a link for the mad max cow killer video?
Nah. This was like 6 years ago, a random youtube suggestion. Youtube reccomends me some real weird stuff sometimes.
Trust and love are powerful bonds.
