[QUOTE="NECowboy, post: 1375941, member: 25360"] All I did get the Animals Make us Human book it had a nice 30 page chapter on cattle on the fear vs seeking behavior, and a little bit on moving, flight zones etc. It was a nice overview of basic cattle behavior and handling from someone who really cares about being humane with farm animals and apparently has worked on a cattle ranch before becoming an animal science professor. Temple seems like a very hardworking respectable lady that overcame a huge adversity (autism) to get to where she is today. The big but as emphasized previously by others is that it's a good starting point but if you keep some of those things in mind and try to observe based on that that's when you really learn. And observation over countless hours, years of interaction. But for someone relatively new to cattle it was awesome to get to understand their behavior better. I'm now reading the horse chapter and it is fascinating as well. Regolith I think my question was very specific maybe too specific. Not everyone has read her books, maybe they've read something else or just one of her articles. That's ok appreciate everyone's posts on here. [/QUOTE]
