This cow has experienced things that are difficult for us humans to even understand.

It began on a normal weekday. Late in the evening, cow was enjoying his favorite meal. Grass. She had been grazing all day, and had no plans of stopping. The sun had began drifting off into the horizon when a new feeling made the hair on cow's neck stand on end.

A bright flash of light emitted nearby from what looked like a tear in the air itself. A rift in time or space or both. It was beautiful. Cow walked as close as she dared and peered inside. The grass on the other side of the rift seemed truly greener and fresher and more beautiful. It flowed like water and cow was immensely consumed by its appearance.

But the fear that seemed to emit from the rift was just as strong. Before cow could blink an eye, a fellow cow stepped out of the rift and into her world. The new cow began eating away at the grass as if it had never seen or tasted grass in it's life. Cow was perplexed. She walked over to the rift and saw that on the other side it looked identical to her own world, aside from the much more delicious looking grass.

She weighed the decision in her cow mind before choosing to just take one tiny taste and be back on her way. She walked up to the shimmering rip in space and stuck her mouth through and bit into the grass. She had only tastes one blade when the rift snapped shut, taking her mouth with it.

Now cow must live with her decision. She will never taste grass again, and surely will die. She now has learned that, truly, grass isn't always greener on the other side.

How does this not have more upvotes???

[–]Blackrose8695 5 points6 points ago

The cow stood too close to a train as it was going by...

[–]KAggie13 2 points3 points ago

I'm assuming it was put down?

[–]leggmann 4 points5 points ago

It wasn't put down, just some harmless teasing and a wet willy.

[–]kimmiej192 1 point2 points ago

This happened in the middle east. I don't think they practice putting down animals.

This happened in the middle east. I don't think they practice putting down animals.

I don't know where or how to begin. Passover, maybe?

[–]KAggie13 0 points1 point ago

And there goes my day.

[–]Hextron 0 points1 point ago

This didn't happen in middle east. It happened in Georgia(the country), which is not middle east and I bet they put her down.

[–]burentu 1 point2 points ago

They only practice GOING down on animals there

[–]DMC_Hotness 10 points11 points ago

This ruined my day

[–]MozzarellaSquirrel 2 points3 points ago

well what did you expect from /r/wtf?

[–]RICH_LITTLE 6 points7 points ago

Apparently it was hit by a train, the skull snapped at the base of the crown, leaving the brain intact but taking the jaw.

This comment was downvoted yet the repost was up voted. Jeez reddit.

[–]aisle5 -1 points0 points ago

The title is clever and adds to the content. Think of it more as a remix rather than a repost.

[–]eremite00 4 points5 points ago

Unless the bottom side of the head (jaw) can be replaced, I hope the owners will put the animal out of its misery. It would also be a good idea that the fence surrounding the grazing area be moved back several feet from the train tracks so this doesn't occur on another animal.

Edit: Okay, why is my comment irrelevant? The animal has no bottom face, including a lower jaw, and not much of a front one. How is putting it down inhumane? Someone explain how an animal that appears to have no lower jaw and not much of an upper face is supposed to feed. It doesn't even look like its got eyes and a nose. Tell me, oh wise ones, what is the best course of action regarding this animal?
