[QUOTE="nagwag, post: 838681, member: 5139"] Calves have the Fight or Flight instinct. You saw the flight. A couple of years ago, I tagged a newborn calf and give him his selenium shot. When I let him go he ran through 4 different fences, across a main road and into a cornfield. I finally caught him with a rope and only let him go when his mother was right next to him. Hopefully the calf's mother will be able to call it to her from the woods when it gets hungry. It may just stay put waiting for momma to come get it. If the calf isn't with it's mother this afternoon, I would be inclined to go look for it. Too many coyotes around for an unprotected calf. [/QUOTE]
