Did you see the story on "Real TV" where the cows saved their New Zealand farmer from a crazed bull?
Seems the bull attacked the farmer, knocked him down, crushed one lung, bashed in his cheekbone, and broke his arm. Then the cows, whom the farmer feeds by hand himself each morning, pushed the bull out of the way and surrounded him.
It is supposedly a true story. If so, do you think the cows were that aware? Would you call it self-interest? Or were they taking bets on how long he would live?!<P>
