Actually, it's a cows-versus-everybody else world. From Dartmouth Today:
A BELOVED pet has been left with life threatening injuries after the dog and his owner were 'attacked' by a cow while walking near Bittaford. Gerald Williams was walking along Red Lake Track with his two golden labradors when he saw a cow on one side of the footpath. Mr Williams said: 'I was knocked to the ground and when one of my dogs, Gemma, started to bark at the cow it turned on her and attacked her as well.'
Mr Williams said the cow only moved on when he managed to pull himself up and 'punched it on the nose'. He said after the attack he realised the cow had a calf, which had been screened by vegetation, on the other side of the footpath. Mr Williams was left with cuts and bruises after the incident and unable to lift his injured dog he phoned his wife for help and a friend with a four-by-four drove on to the Moors to collect him and his pets...

I wondered if you'd seen this when I read it in the 'Metro' today...
'Heavy snow on the roof', eh..?
Or possibly, sabotage?
I don't know. Whats the country coming to? First its hoodies, now you even get beaten up by the local livestock.
JM, I did indeed spot it in the Metro.
As to the "snow on roof" incident, as an expert on these matters, I suspect the cows deliberately farted a lot to create global warming, which in turn caused the snow, which thus caused the shed to collapse.
BTW, livestock attacks will soon overtake hoodie attacks in the scare story stakes.
It may not be just the weight of the snow - mild steel gets brittle if you chill it below zero Celsius, unless you've stress-relieved it as a precaution.
He punched a cow with a calf? Is there no end to the inumanity of man against cow?
