[QUOTE="AngusLimoX, post: 200383, member: 3319"] I think you are right on backhoe, I just read an article that some ag professor wrote on bottle calves. Everyone thinks high number of dairy bull attacks are because the holtstein breed, or jersey breed is naturally more aggressive. The prof say's it is because the animals "imprint" that you are one of them because you bottle feed them. When they grow up they display their natural tendencies for aggression on humans instead of cattle. Same with deer, he quoted a death rate of 15 people per year in the U.S. from deer attacks. He didn's say they were all bottle raised but suspected that many were.( I am sure we have all seen those hilarious videos :lol: ). Been talking to some folks around here and the coyotes are more of a problem than I thought. Very difficult to keep sheep around here without large predation losses and they have pretty much run white tails off. I guess I better get a little more proactive with them. Before the tree huggers make another law. [/QUOTE]
