Are cows dangerous?
#21834300 - 06/20/15 10:10 PM (8 years, 7 months ago) |
|

A few times recently i've been running into groups of cows pasteuring in the woods while I am hiking or walking. The first time they scattered - I was surprised to see how fast they could run through fairly dense/steep forest.
This evening however I was on a walking trail in my neighbourhood and came across a big group of them. The first group scattered and i continued up the trail. There was loud and persistent mooing in the distance and eventually as I was walking up the trail, a big cow walked out of the grasslands and cut me off at the pass of the trail. She held her ground and didn't seem to want to move, all the while staring me down. I backtracked a couple hundred meters and went on another trail maybe 50m past the side of her, and she held her ground and watched as I passed.
As i walked out of the woods I passed probably a dozen other cows - most who just watched as i passed but didn't seem threatened or threatening. However the first one that cut me off at the pass seemed like she felt threatened and made me feel uneasy. I suspect she was guarding her young...
I've never really considered a cow to be dangerous - but this experience made me reconsider.
Any information is appreciated.

It was probably protecting a calf. But any time something 10 x my size warns me off I pay attention.

Anything that weighs that much is dangerous.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

What he said, they can be protective. Just be thankful ranchers don't keep bulls with their herd.

Yes, cows are dangerous. If you run into an angry bull, you can become a statistic very fast.

I grew up on a dairy farm. Dairy cows are pretty gentle for the most part. They are handled and touched a few times a day. Beef cattle are usually more timid than dangerous. They don't get the daily interaction that dairy cows get. On occasion, you will get a mean cow (both dairy and beef) but it's rare. A bull is a different story. We had some bulls as cuddly as a kitten and others meaner than satan. If you are trespassing and spook cows, that is an alarm to a farmer if he's near by. Just keep your distance from cows since you're not familiar/comfortable with them. If one does charge at you, first out maneuver him/her and then run. Go up a tree or jump a fence. I waz attacked by a cow and got underneath for while she kicked me like a soccer ball fir 40 feet. She was a mean bitch and i carried a cattle prod anytime i went out to gwt the cows while until she died years later. She tried to attack me one time i didn't have the prod (like she knew) and i kicked the fuck out of her. I was always scared of her, but towards the end, we had a mutual respect for each other. She lived to be an old cow and i was sad when she died. So, to answer your question, no, for the most part cows are not dangerous. But they can be.

This is the kind of reply I was hoping for - so thank you.
These were dairy cows and I wasn't trespassing to be clear. This is a public "nature park" which is built on land partially owned by a dairy farm. It's the first time i've seen the cows out there and I was surprised that there were no signs or anything indicating that they were pasteuring in such a public area.
I felt 100% comfortable passing all of the other cows, but that one that cut me off had it out for me, you could see it in her eyes. I had a tree staked out that I was going to climb if it came to that....

Dairy cows. You should be fine. And dairy cows won't have calves with them and mist dairies artificially inseminate. So no bulls. But note this, dairy bulls tend to be much more aggressive than beef bulls. I'm guessing cause they fuck all the cows once a year in a few days and beef bulls fuck year round  Also note that you will probably not find cubes in dairy cow manure, as it's loaded with lots of protein and tends to be too "running."

Would you breed a guard dog with a herding dog?
We had Guernsey, Holstein and jersey cows. They were bred with the appropriate bulls.

Just close your eyes and think "dairy".
Be careful though since you're the one intruding in their turf. All animals need space respect-and shrooms to grow in their turd. Damn, I wish that last part were true for us haha Imagine.

I used to walk by cows a few feet away several times a day for many months. They were never too concerned with me.
But when it was a mama cow with her calf, oh man, you gotta steer clear and never get between them.

If the cow doesn't have a calf then the thing you need to watch for is the bull. If the cow has a calf, stay the fuck away or she will straight up kill you. For that matter, if you see what appears to be a calf by itself, stay as far away from it as possible. It is not by itself.

On the other hand I did get chased down a mountain but mama bear after scaring its cub! Not looking to repeat with another species...
FYI - i live in semi-arid desert, definitely not mushroom country!
I assumed these cows were jersey (black and white) - they actually seemed bigger than the brown beef cows we usually have around here. This land is owned by one of the big local dairies...
(just checked wikipedia - they do look like jersey cows)

I know of a farmer who got killed by a cow. It was in the stable. The farmer was between the wall and the cow and the cow just leaned in, crushing him. Probably meant no harm, wanted to be close, but dead he was.
Respect cows but don't be scared. They are herbivores.

I worked on a farm as a teenager, this mexican kid that worked with me jumped on the back of an old heifer like she was a bull once and she got pissed and bucked him off. Then she ran away.
Juan was an asshole though. He tried to stab me in my leg with a fork once. Lucky nothing happened. But shortly thereafter, 3 high school football players from Clovis NM were helping us buck alfalfa and Juan called this big mother fucker named 'Joe Bob' 'Blow Job' one day at lunch so the three guys dragged Juan into the tool shed and dry smashed him.

But he was always fucking with he cows.

The normal cows aren't damgerous at all really and will mostly run away from people. Which is what it seemed like happened with the packs of cows that scattered as you said. But the Bulls, which are the leaders of the pack are dangerous. They will charge and trample people if they are challenged or threatened. Kind of like the silverback gorilla, they protect the pack. When they start digging their hooves into the ground and thrashing their head up and down is when they're about to charge. But mostly if you just leave them alone they'll be okay and won't attack or anything

I'll provide some context:
I was climbing a mountain behind my house, offtrail - basically bushwhacking. I came up the side, over the top and was about to crest over onto the front face of the mountain and descend. There was a small rise and when I went over the rise, on the otherside was a cub which then got spooked and ran off. I turned around, nearly stepped on a grouse (which took off and scared the fuck out of me), and proceeded to quickly start descending the front side of the mountain as planned. The mountain consisted of large basketball sized boulders and scree so my footing wasn't great and I had to choose my footing wisely. Within a few minutes the mother was following behind maybe 15-25m (really not too sure on distance) and eyeing me up/staring me down. I would stop - yell, pick up sticks and pieces of logs and try to make myself look big and scary, and she would crock her head and look amused at me. I would descend for another couple minutes and she would stay the same distance behind me and I would repeat....
This continued until I was a substantial distance down the mountain and eventually she lost interest and went back up.
There wasn't much else I could have done in that situation. I suppose I could have stood my ground and tried to look big and scary hoping she retreated, but with her above me and moving quicker on the difficult ground than I was, I felt like I doing what I did was a good option.
(FYI - this is a black bear, not a grizzly)

Every now and then I read in the papers people getting killed by cows in different ways, but overall domesticated cows are pretty safe animals to be around. I used to have a bull that would always charge me from the day he was born to the day I butchered him 6 months early. That Cow just had a mean spirit altogether and the meat even tasted mean.

i went on the farmers field not that far away from me there was about 30 cows in that field or more
And this is no word of a lie i was in the field for about 2minutes
and a group of 20cows BIG FUCKERS all started to walk be hind me and surround me, me being who i am just walked another 5minutes to see if they would walk away and they didnt sow climbing over the closes
fence i could see whilst shitting myself made a right move to fuck off out of there field.
I will NOT be doing that again.
Fuck that was Scary.
Don't be scared. Dairy cows need to be milked and when they see a human they expect he is there to take them to the milking shed so they will surround you. They are harmless. They won't hurt you and you can't get them to go away. It's kinda cool being surrounded by them. They are sweet animals. They ruined many a pheasant hunt for me.

Obviously you don't know shit about cows and are talking about something you have zero experience in. Next time you chime in, try talking about something you actually know shit about.

I've only had bulls charge me and there were no calves. Milk cows the worst thing about them is they might step on your foot and kick you when they try to shake flies off their legs.

Cows kill more people per year than sharks.
It isn't from traffic accidents either, they kill about 22 people a year.

Some people get caught up in stampedes, While it is rare - cows have be known to attack people. There are certain circumstances in which cattle may be more aggressive, such as when their calves are young.

Like I said, I've been completely surrounded by them and their calves and they just wanted to follow me to the milking shed even though I was a total stranger. Never a worry. I will say I didn't trust them when mucking the shit trough.

Same, played with them as kid also
So you think animals weighing 1000 - 1500+ lb's aren't dangerous?
ok we may have domesticated them but
 your experience doesn't take away that people die from them each year

They want to be milked. It is painful for them if you skip on the schedule

I've got two cows at home, they're friendly and affectionate but they're fucking huge and could easily crush someone if they wanted to. Also never walk behind them, they will kick like a horse.

If he were that smart he could have easily got out of the fence.

Hence my distrust when mucking the gutter. None of them ever took a swing at me though

when cows get out of your fence you just let them go like they won their freedom?

No, but there would have been no one home all day. He had windows of opportunity to make a break for it. He was just a bully - bullied all the other cows around too.

Probably the most common injury for people who actually work with cows is them accidentally stepping on their feet.
Reminds me of a song lyric that says woman want a man who fucks like a cow foot.
