0481

NEWSFLASH!!!!


Latest news is that 0495 is gonna be saved from the gallows. Apparently Unni went back to think about it after i told her that she was one of my favourites and she decided that they could keep it, coz she was still considered a young cow and her milk this morning wasn't too bad. so she'll live.

BUT IN RETURN, 0481 is gonna go!!! Apparently her milk ain't so good.

BWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

she's another one of my favourites. She's code named the 'Big black' coz she's big and i mean bigger than other cows and black... DUH.


A while back when all the other cows were still on 1.5 scoops of feed, she was the only milking cow getting less. 1 scoop each time only. There she would be eagerly waiting for me to dish out her feed and she'd get only 1 scoop.

She's had problems with her legs, so she's always walking very much slower than the rest. Each time i walk the cows in from the field in, she'd always be at the back, slowly trudging along. But coz no cow ever walks alone, i'd have to wait for her to come and walk with her into the cow house.

taken on the last day the cows were in the field,
that's her, slowly walking right at the back, while the rest were already at the door

It's probably good that her last days was spent in the cow house, so she wouldn't have to make the daily trips in and out of the cow house, coz she'd always take one step at a time, the others would have already gone into the field and charged towards the green grass, and there she would be, just making her way to the field.

that's her at the back. as usual


So one cow is saved, and another going to the gallows.

I wonder if cows know when they get to the slaughter house.

Well, i hope that when the time comes, she won't be scared.

She'll soon have all the feed she wants in the big meadow in the sky.

Poor Big Black.
There's this famous high-functioning autistic researcher in the US called Temple Grandin who researches on and designs hi-tech humane livestock slaughtering facilities among other things. I wouldn't be surprised if Norway's abattoirs are something like those, considering what kind of society it is
