Poor cow! I've never even heard of a cow that has been killed by lightning strike, let alone one that survived one!

And they do not keep cattle around forever. Once she has reached her peak production point it would be costly to have her around on the farm, except for those superstitious farmers who would see her as lucky. Vegan, besides not eating meat I hope you do understand that the dairy cattle, bred for high milk yield, are not the same as those bred for beef production. Yes, the males will be eaten and the older dairy cattle will be eaten but the two production processes are very different and so are the associated breeds.

It is a dairy cow, but a young one, a Heifer is a young cow, who's had no calf. and a Cow is a full grown cow who's had a calf. A Heifer is "flat chested" she has an udder, but it's flat, but develops around the time when she's due to give birth. I hope that's accurate. :) Wolfie!

She produces your food (you drink her milk and eat her male offspring). She's more like "the maker of your food". As such, her good health is in yours (and her farmer-type's) best interest.

Boo, a cow was struck by lightning. But it lived. Its likely being treated with pain killers and burn meds. If you can't laugh at the bad stuff in life, then maybe you should get your internet shut off. Also, as the lightning strike doesn't seem to have done it in, that cow is probably set for life, as any farmer would see that as a lucky cow and not send it to the slaughter house, which is MUCH more horrible than being struck by lightning, I assure you.
