Just love this breed of cattle. They are so gentle and friendly and don't they look cuddly? As you can see I was lying on the ground very close to the cattle but not afraid. Now if that had been a common cow I wouldn't have done that, having been chased by an angry herd and head butted repeatedly. We were saved by a man who had a gate at the bottom of his garden who helped us out of the field. I think it may have been our dog that was making them spooked, but having said that, there have been people deaths on footpaths through fields of cows that didn't have a dog with them. It seems to be that the cows are being over protective of their young cows. I won't walk through a field of cows any more. Except for this breed which are just so calm and lovely.
Beautiful ,I agree, these are very friendly. My husband and friend had a narrow escape on one of their walks this summer past, luckily there was an escape route or it would have been nasty and like you they won't go into a field of cows now and it takes a lot to spook him!! Big fav
