Did the Simmental need stitching?

Wish I could take credit for the pics but I can't. It was another valley resident that came by at the right time and had a camera.

I-12 was scratched up, no sutures. One LUCKY cow on that one.

So true in many ways. It's the good momma's that can kill people under the right circumstances.

Those pics were incredible! You should submit them to National Geographic or some such....good cows! Poor little bear looks like he needs his mommy!

If that bear survives he will need years of therapy.

That bear didn't look more than a year old, probably an orphan. I'm glad Mother Black bear wasn't there, but I imagine mother black bear would know better than to take on a cow.

I dunno 77herford.

We went bear watching last week and saw 13 bears (5 adults, the rest were cubs).

Due to the hard weather we have had this summer and the past couple years, the mother bears were TINY.

My mastiff is bigger than the mothers we saw, and many of the momma bears would have barely made 100lbs. These bears were in a state park and were watched carefully, so we knew the ages, most of the tiny mothers were between 3-4 years old.

I dont know how it is where the bear and cows were, but here in NC, the weather has made things pretty hard on the wild bears.

fat healthy cubs

tiny little momma

That's some serious pasture those cows are in. It extends all the way to Oregon!

Looks like I have to have a little chat with our gent who sent the pics to me along with the commentary. Thanks for the heads up!

It was just so amazing I had to post it! Lesson learned here I guess.
