Well, i got a new one for yall. yesterday afternoon we were feeding cows and a heifer calf walks by with blood all over half of her face around her left nostril all the way down to her mouth. this is a gray charolaisxangus type heifer so it looked particularly gruesome on her. watching her i could see when she opened her mouth that the top of her tongue is sliced pretty good, about 3/4 across and i dont know how deep. i explained to the guy that helps out that it would be unlikely for her to have bitten her own tongue, since cows only have bottom front teeth. i concluded that the cow must have cut her tongue on some trash in the hay, such as a drink can or something like that. i know i do some of my worst cussing when i bite my tongue...any other ideas? today her tongue is a little swollen and her mouth is kind of foamy.
