Cows on the farm.

Why are they locked up away from their mothers????????????????

You know what you’re right😢. I didn’t even think of that. I was at a dairy farm.

a bunch of different reasons, especially right after birth: -moms are tired after pushing out a baby and want to rest -dairy cattle are notoriously not the best mothers and tend to forget their babies / step on them (1,500 pounds) -calves are born with a weak immune system, and being with the rest of the herd isn’t safe yet, you actually aren’t supposed to touch them yet (no hate to creator they are so cute) just protecting the babies and making sure they get individual care they need!!
