(1,395 posts)I think it's the nature of cows to be curious. When the dog and I walk by fields with cows, a lot of times they will all mosey on over to the fence. It only takes one to start and then they all follow. And when they are being led across the road by their farmer, they will stop to look in the car windows - they try to get their whole heads in. They make me laugh.

Remember this one?

(15,480 posts)I spent some summers at an uncle's cattle ranch/wheat farm. One day my cousin and I took our cow ponies out to move the bull from the group of cows he'd been servicing in the north pasture, through the middle pasture (with no cattle in it) to the south pasture where a different group of cows were waiting to be serviced. Since the bull could not see/smell/whatever the cows in the south pasture, he was bound and determined not to move from that north pasture. Round and round we went. It rained & we got soaked. It stopped raining. We're still in pursuit of the bull. Finally we had him on the run, headed in the right direction. When he yet again tried to veer away from the gate we were heading him towards, my cousin's horse, a prize quarterhorse my uncle had bought at the Kanas City Royal horse show, leaned over at full gallop and bit the bull right on the rump. The bull squealed. It was an amazing, high-pitched squeal. But he gave up and went through the gate! And the following spring there was an appropriate number of calves on the ranch. A prized memory from my youth!

Picture the cattle drive. Tired dusty cowboys clutching their brass at the end of the trail. The experienced older hands with their trombones. The new know-it-all kid with his saxophone. The guy from Texas with the drum set. In the distance, the rustlers on a lonely hilltop grimly waiting their chance, rubbing their tubas.
