To be fair, we should express some concern for and compassion towards the cow.

There are loads of 2000lbs+ cows around here, and this is cattle ranching country.FBM wrote:HP is calling it 3,000lbs. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/1 ... 91849.html
Elsewhere, it's 1.5. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldne ... f-him.html
Realistically, being raised on a rural farm, I'd guess the max was probably around 7~800lbs. Sensationalism in the media.

Yarp. When I'm done renovations and playing at being an automechanic, I'll get me a decent DSLR and take some pictures of them. 
Oooh and maybe a big horn sheep bowling down the mountainside from a mountain lion's leap. There are tons of both of them in the mountains south of me too.
