Remember the post where the dude documented the slaughtering of their cow? He pulled out like 20 or more pounds of grass/shit from the cow's colon. Cows eat a lot.

[–]Golden-Calf 78 points79 points ago

That stuff is called animal digest. It goes into cheap pet food, and even some medium-quality ones like purnina.

[–]GorgeouslyHumbl[!] 64 points65 points ago

Good to know that our pets eat cow shit.

[–]vidarc 57 points58 points ago

It's slightly above them eating their own shit.

Well, if you own a cow as a pet... never ending food supply for the cow!

[–]Roy141 17 points18 points ago

As a guy living on a farm, I can confirm that dogs will regularly eat/roll in cow and horse shit. Not the dried up ones either, I'm talking fresh from the source, steaming shit. If you've never been around cows, imagine dark green diarrhea.

[–]enntwo 13 points14 points ago

How about I don't imagine that and we call it even?

[–]flloyd 2 points3 points ago

I never had to pull on my german shepherd's collar so hard as when it was inhaling deer pellets. That shit was like crack to him.

[–]ADD_Booknerd 22 points23 points ago

To be fair, if you let a dog loose near it normally, most would probably eat it.

[–]patboone 16 points17 points ago

Or roll in it, if it's been in the optimal conditions to really get putrid and full of maggots.

[–]MEANMUTHAFUKA 13 points14 points ago

When we were kids, one of my friends chucked a bag full of bait fish down the street. It sat there in the hot Florida sun, on black asphalt, putrefying for days... The bag had popped open and the fish was literally CRAWLING with maggots. Somehow the family dog got out. What did he do? Ran right to it, rolled in it, then ATE IT!! it was absolutely horrifying, a fucking horror show, and the last time I ever let a dog lick my face.

[–]fromtheoven 2 points3 points ago

A cow pie is like a multi-generational colony. First generation are the maggots, within a few days of being plopped down. They tunnel around in there and the poo starts crusting over on top. Around the same time, maybe a day later of the maggots, you'll see a lot of dung beetles moving in. There are 3-4 different species you'll commonly see in the USA in a cow pie. By the time a week passes, the poo will be stiff and solid like a frisbee almost, possibly with a residual soft core. There will be lots of tunnels going through it, and this is when you'll see a lot of little spiders taking up residence in the tunnels, cleaning up any other little critters who stuck around or live in the nearby grass. It's like an apartment building. I guess my point is that it will be full of maggots when it's fairly fresh, and probably not when it's putrid.

[–]poliuy 2 points3 points ago

Sounds like a great plot for a new animation show on FOX

[–]GeppettoLied 27 points28 points ago

Well, you should know.

[–]TheRem 3 points4 points ago

I can verify this, my wife works in animal law and I proofread an article she did. Even more disturbing when a cow dies on a farm fills up with maggots and bakes in the sun for a few days the whole carcass is taken to a rendering plant. At the rendering plant it gets mixed in with other euthanized dogs that were not claimed and roadkill and boiled. The oil is sold to one place, the bones are ground down and all the "meat" + boiled maggots, is blended up and considered "meat by-product". Go check your dog food bags!

[–]Anal_Justice_League 8 points9 points ago

Part of me want's to see that link, but even more of me doesn't.

[–]Require_More_Mineral 5 points6 points ago

How much is that in Courics?

[–]willystylee 2 points3 points ago

Well, one Katie Couric is about two and a half pounds of excrement.

So assuming that the type of cow that was hit in this here photograph was a Holstein and male (as joked in OP's title), if a full size male Holstein bull can weigh up to 1500lbs (let's say it weighed a grand to be fair), and a cow eats 2.5% to 4.5% of their body weight per day (let's say 3.5% to be fair), then by my calculations that's about 35lbs, which comes out to a total of 87.5 courics of shit.

[–]11oops 6 points7 points ago

I cant imagine that undigested grass that is in the process of passing through their digestive system looks like brown shit. But, I'll defer to the experts.

[–]I_Will_Remember -1 points0 points ago

It depends on what you put in. This time of year stuff isn't green, its brown or yellow, thus a lot of brow 'shit' (really somewhat digested plant matter). In the spring and summer or if the cow, sheep, goat, etc. are on hay it will be green. How do I know? I used to be a butcher.

[–]TheWhiteeKnight 176 points177 points ago

Here's what happened to the cow next.

[–]brelkor 120 points121 points ago

Its mostly partially digested grass (still gross). Cows are like 60% stomach.

[–]sulejmankulenovic 42 points43 points ago

There was a post on here not too long ago that was a series of pictures of a cow being butchered. The contents of the stomach looked like someone just mowed the lawn and collected all the grass.

edit:spelling

[–]ItsSkitters 58 points59 points ago

Ive actually stuck my hand in a living cows "stomach" (abomasum* or rumen, I forget which). It had a canula maybe 4 or 5 inches wide (basically a permanent surgically implanted hole with a plastic plug).

The contents look exactly like old, decaying grass clippings. They smelled like cabbage. I remember one girl who did it got her hand stuck after the stomach contracted, trapping her arm. She started to cry.

Edit: according to my animal science book it's the rumen that usually has a canulla put in. The other three parts (omasum, abomasum, and reticulum) are for further degradation. By the time it all hits the reticulum it looks more poop like I believe.

[–]LATKE_IN_MY_TUCHES 41 points42 points ago

My favorite part about the cows-with-plugs at vet schools is that when you stick your hand into the cow's stomach, the cow just doesn't give a fuck

[–]Netstorm19 23 points24 points ago

That is the one thing that really gets me about it--they're just like "so what, you're inside of me, wanna fight about it?"

[–]marti141 7 points8 points ago

Vet student here with undergrad in Animal Science. The rumen plug is used mostly in research to directly throw in supplements or drugs without them chewing and regurgitating it. Also they are used in teaching hospitals for emergency transflourination (take a 5gal bucket pull out stomach digesta and put it in sick cows. Kinda cool.

[–]Lettuce_Get_Weird 13 points14 points ago

Any reason, or are you just that kind of a curious cat?

[–]ItsSkitters 21 points22 points ago

A bit of both I suppose. I was majoring in animal science at the time. That was a weird semester. I was taking scuba diving, animal and meat science, and horse training for classes while working and living on a horse rearing facility. I was right out of the suburbs and was a nerdy kid growing up with no farm experience.

[–]8girls12cups 3 points4 points ago

"meat science"?

that seriously sounds cool. Could you explain that a bit?

[–]ItsSkitters 6 points7 points ago

Basically we learned about livestock and the butchering process, all the cuts and USDA regulations and all that. It was a neat course seeing as I didn't really have a good grasp of where my food came from. I also took basic and advanced sustainable and organic crop production, alternative cropping systems, organic weed management (agricultural weeds sadly), and some horticultural classes. That was a fun time in my life.

[–]kingblueX 6 points7 points ago

Link?

[–]desynch 5 points6 points ago

anyone happen to have the link to that handy? sounds like an interesting visual adventure.

[–]otherwiseintelligent 36 points37 points ago

I was next to a car that hit a deer on a highway once and my car looked very similar to this.

I pulled over to a roadside gas station and proceeded to try and clean it off the windows best I could with the radiator water hose and a squeegee (and yes I cleaned it afterwards).

As I was doing this the proprietor came up and stood beside me and quietly said:

"Buckwash."

[–]RiotActor 32 points33 points ago

An emu ran in front of my Mustang several years back, jumping at the last second. But I still smacked the guy. Feathers, blood and clear fluid all over the top of my car and a cracked windshield. Since I was in the middle of nowhere for about 90 minutes each way, I had no choice but continue to drive while the flimsy remnants of my windshield fluttered in my face occasionally leaking bird fluid onto my dash.

[–]otherwiseintelligent 12 points13 points ago

Oh. Dear. God. That's awful!

[–]SchwarzschildRadius 2 points3 points ago

An emu? Was this in Australia?

[–]KallistiEngel 7 points8 points ago

I once was driving on a rural road that a lot of big trucks drive on and there was a patch of road that was just covered in blood with a few small bits of fur. Truck must have hit a deer and just turned it into a red mist.

[–]Require_More_Mineral 4 points5 points ago

Antler shrapnel. Most likely not pleasant.

[–]MegaDed2897 48 points49 points ago

Great for the intimidation factor, though. Especially if you're playing a team called the Cows or Bulls or something. Just drive that sucker onto the field (over the opposing team's annoying-as-hell college band), and that's the halftime show.
