[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1105038, member: 17767"] Jo, your thread on the cow that cut her belly to the guts brought this to mind. I constantly pay attention to: [b]Safe Place For Cows[/b]. Since I started preparing my farm for cattle, I maintain a vigil for places and objects that are unsafe. I have removed miles of old wire. When I renovated pasture, I would spend evenings walking the open ground picking up debris. I found broken bush hog blades, old steel posts, plow shares, wedges, old axes, old tools, etc. I deal with every sharp or projecting object I see. It is a vigil I constantly pursue. I wonder if anyone else worries about making their place "Cow Friendly". I see pictures on here of cattle in barns or buildings with objects that pose a safety risk and old machinery setting around that has sharp projecting edges. Cows are good at getting around these areas without harm but you never know when another cow may push one into a bad spot and cause a wound like the one Jo had to deal with. [/QUOTE]
