RE: A cows life: the true cost of milk16 Feb 2022 12:01
dear warren gibb,
I can tell you the back story to that cow that was unable to get up on her feet from where she was, the farmer had to make a decision move the cow to a safer place where she could be looked after or hope it would get up by itself, they rarely do, so the decision was taken to move it, this is because if a cow lies on the same side for more than six hours, the muscle is bruised,( this occurs because the cow weighs more than 700kg), if that occurs there is very little chance for the cow to continue her life. This is where pragmatism is useful.
No one has told us what happened to the cow afterwards
