kind of an odd question about cows
11/5/2007 at 9:27 PM
l was out hunting geese today with a friend of mine when we drove past a dairy farm with all the cows standing outside.
we noticed all the cows had had their tails chopped off to about 5 '' long.
does anyone know why they would do this ? l am thinking maybe it had something to do with hooking them up to the milking machine,maybe the tail got in the way ? l thought a cow had a tail to keep away the flies.kind of an odd post,but was just wondering if someone knew the correct answer ? thanks..
