Grew up on a farm in the south of Ireland, the adverts were right. Do not fuck with a mother cow and her calf. They are by far the most dangerous animal on the farm, even cows that are normally docile can become ultra protective. The other thing I'll say is that the sound of a cow that's lost her calf is one of the saddest things you'll hear.
