There has been an increase of 'hikers' out walking in our countryside being trampled by 'cows'. Dont know if its down to hot weather or not but normaly docile herds of cows are being reported to be attacking walkers. Only a couple of weeks ago a lady out walkin her two dogs on leads was trampled and killed by a herd and last week a local women was also trampled (she didnt have a dog). Beware when walking amongst cows, they are getting there own back. (Nothing like a woman scorned, lol)

Surprised  Photo: Yuksrus.com  I've had a few scares like this!! but they normally just walk away, if you just walk through them and ignore them, they seem curious, maybe its just how you react to them? like dogs? they can sense your scared, maybe if you just walked through them theys let you??  wouldn't like to try it at the moment though!!Smile

yes i have had some scary cow experiences too! When i was a child I went to school camp in Bewdley when I was 9 or 10 we were walking through a field and the cows ganged up on us - lined up all along the edge of a pool we were walking along - thought they were going to ram us in there!!! Got chased through a field in Cornwall once too!

Sounds like in this weather they are mad cows not silly ones!

I love cows, the only time I ever got chassed by them was once when I was a kid. The cows in Derbyshire whilst on holiday there were very friendly and didn’t seem to mind us walking through their field, although my son in law did claim to get chassed by one whilst out on a solo walk, I think she just took a liking to him.
