After I spent a ton of time around cows, I see them as giant hooved dogs now. They act a lot like dogs. Big ol' 4-stomached goofballs.

You're not wrong, but dogs would mooove aside and chase my car, not block it. The number of times I've had a rancher say "just put it in drive and hold the break a little." Or "they'll eventually move around you."

I'm glad its not just my cows who find it funny to stand in front of my truck.

Also similar to dogs, our ancestors were terrified of their ancestors.

Pigs act a lot like dogs too. My mom has one who rolls into his back to get belly scratches and lolls his tongue out of his mouth.

I once heard a guy refer to cows as having two states of mind:

“Oooh, what is that?” And “AHHH WHAT IS THAT??!!??”

Running of the bulls, but with goats. They trample wherever they please

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I have no real experience with bulls or goats, but based on what I've seen online, my impression is that bulls are pissed at everyone and willing to kill whoever is in their way at the moment, but they'll keep moving eventually. I feel like goats will each pick one person in particular, blame that person for everything that has ever gone wrong in their life, and beat on them relentlessly until they no longer exist, such that you, broken and bruised, manage to escape, catch a bus back to your hotel, gather your belongings, take a cab to the airport, fly home, take another cab to your house, and while you are fumbling with your keys at your front door, out of nowhere comes the goat ready to continue your beating.

Cows are just big dogs that you can drink from.
