Well, if someone gets too close at the wrong time, it could result in a dirty shoe.

Cows, like all mammals,produce milk to feed their young.  We take advantage of this when we milk a cow.   The milk supply produced depends on the demand for it.   If a calf- or the farmer, take less milk, then less is produced to replace it.  After a while, the cow's body quits producing milk all together, and she "dries up" in farmer language.  Now if you have a cow in milk production, you milk her twice a day, every day, 7 days a week.  At each milking, you try to remove all the milk from the udder.  If you do not milk her, she will get extremely uncomfortable, full and irritable.  Some will leak out, and eventually her body would absorb the excess.  In the meantime, she would be at risk to develop infections and abcesses of the udder, and could even die from them.  If she does develop an abcess, milk production in that quadrant (cows have four separate sections in the udder, and four teats, fyi) will stop.   It may also not produce milk in that quadrant ever again, and will always be at risk for developing another abcess if she does.  A good farmer would never let this happen.  He would gradually reduce the amount of milk taken from a cow over a period of weeks until there was very little produced.  A cow naturally dries up milk supply before another calf is born, at which point she "freshens" and begins supplying milk again.

Because, they don't like having people watching them when they do it, they don't like to do it at all usually. Please see Mr. Owlings linky thingy, you might go (like I did) awwwww, look at the ickle cute panda wandas! :P

So when the cowboys go find the heard of cows they can hear where they are. if they have 1000 acres of land just think how hard that will be finding cows. This way they can find them easier.

There are farmers and companies that grow calves into full grown adult cattle.  Then, they sell the cattle at an auction, to people who then use them for meat, or for milking.\n\nIn an auction, they bring a cow, bull, or steer into an area for people to inspect.  Then the auctioneer starts the bidding  (Who will pay $1000?)  If somebody offers to pay that amount, the auctioneer increases the amount until there is only one person left willing to pay that price.  That one remaining bidder then pays that price, and buys the animal.\n\nA farm may only have room for a so many "head" of cattle, so if there are calves, a few cattle are auctioned off so to control overpopulation.

they got no thumbs. but seriously animals don't have sex for pleasure with the exception of dalphins. so with that knolige they don't want to and their is no reason to feel bad for them.

Some people do care about animals but its the ones that dont or dont know that  are hurting the enviroment. The people that do know what people are doing to animals dont take action and do something to stop it. Those who dont either dont know whats going on about these problems or just dont care. killing animals that are on the verge of extinction is illegal but people do it anyway. what are people doing to stop this?  People have a job to do to keep these animals alive. Are you doing yours? Or do you care less about the balance of nature? people should be doing there part. Please try to do yours or the balance of nature is affected by what humans do! So are you going to do your role or do you care less about what happens?

Because they don't care about animals.

maybe because they are less agile than that of a smaller animal there by needing only to consume such quantity of food, and also bigger animals has the ability to conserve energy in their body......i guess

Some people do it because they feel it's an animal rights issue. Some people do it because they feel it's a human rights issue. Some people do it because they feel it is better for the environment. Some people do it because their religion tells them to. Some people do it because their doctor recommended it. Some people do it because they feel healthier. Some people do it because they just don't like meat.

Cows can walk upstairs but not down them because a cow's knees cannot bend properly to walk down stairs.

I think it's because people are basically egocentric.  Also self-preservation is rather high on the list of the instincts.

I am admittedly old, but I have to wonder what has become of simple human consideration.  There was a time when children were taught that invading another person's space without invitation was rude.  \n\n   I live in a neighborhood that is a real mixed bag, we run the gammut from serious gun rack redneck to yuppies jogging with their 2.3 kids in the special jogging set up.\n\n   I look out my kitchen window and I see show dogs and nasty looking pit bulls being walked by people with tatoo's.\n\n   It's all good to me.  As long as we respect each other and one another's space.\n\n   Seems to me you invaded this woman's space and law asside, you frightened her.  You may not have meant to, but you did.  The right way to resolve this is for you to go and see her and tell her you are sorry, and then talk about boundaries. \n\n   It works for neighbors, and it can work for Nations.\n\n   Consider antagonists as two dots, the shortest distance between them is a straight line, logic dictates that you go to her.   How can you go to her and expect a good result?\nAdmit you scared her, and say you are sorry.  How can you both have closure?  Talk to each other, leave the cops out, leave parents out....talk and resolve.\n\n   It is how the world works.  Or so it often seems to me.

I have a pet cow called Bluebell. She is absolutely huge, but she has no difficulty going backwards forwards or side to side and turns like a ballerina! However she does like to walk on firm even ground, and refuses to step over or across anything. This is why you see those metal grids across lanes in the countryside; it stops the cows from wandering away from the farm tracks.
