[QUOTE="angie1, post: 627047, member: 3886"] I think the attack and the subsequent injury are isolated and rare incidents ~ I have never had, nor even heard of, issues with this. I have heard of cattle being struck by lightening during a storm gathered under a tree on several occassions ~ yet I do not go out and put them in the barn during a storm. As Joy pointed out, it can happen to a young calf in a herd with its mom, and yet it is no more of a viable option to seperate each cow/calf pair into their own pasture to prevent a freak accident. I have, as do others on here, put my bottle babies in with the cow/calf pairs very young ~ and they come in 2 or 3 times a day for their bottle, in over night for grain and back out with the herd in the morning. If he was a pet as opposed to a feed steer, it would make complete sense to me to put him in with the cows, but I hear what you are saying. [/QUOTE]
