[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 736261, member: 968"] Don't ever get complacent enough to believe this holds true ALL the time. The sweetest, most gentle cow can turn into a killer in a heartbeat. A riled cow WILL run over her calf to get you. MOST won't - but it only takes ONE! MOST of my cows let me handle their newborns - but - I put the cow out of the pen when I'm tagging, weighing or anything that the calf may "bawl". When we managed a farm where all the mature cows calved out in open lots, we used a jeep & put the calf in the back of it to process. Also, cows are less agressive out in the open compared to in a pen - they feel trapped - and they are! But, always be cautious. It only takes one. [/QUOTE]
