They must be because if they aren't then why do they always all seem to face the same way in a field?

I think it's because they automatically line themselves up with the earth's magnetic field.....or lay lines, it depends on which one is stronger at the time.

Oh yeah.

Most cows are north-facing feeders (therefore south-facing sh•tters).

As if this wasn't wondrous enough, they also taste of beef.

Indeed...If animals weren't meant to be eaten then they wouldn't be made of meat.

And although most farm equipment is made of iron or steel the cow-magnets seem to get by perfectly well. Go figure.

They're very easily influenced, cows. They're just trying to be sheep in a desperate bid to be accepted. Copying each other all the time. Following each other about

Not that they're fooling anyone, mind! I think they should have a bit more self-respect. Frankly its pathetic!

They are all either stood up or sat down. Does the boss cow say "Right ladies, on yer feet!" and they all get up?

Also cows were designed with a ruler. Lots of straight lines. No curves. There is no such thing as a voluptuous cow.

There's some cows in the field near home. I shall try and stick some Wallace and Grommit fridge magnets to them after tea.

Be sure to have the polarity correct or you may fire the cows across the field. You would be safer if you simply confronted the cow with a piece of ferrous metal such as a knife or an axe to see if it will stick to them*.

*I will not be held responsible if you are shot at by the farmer.

You've been around dairy cattle too much, try beef breeds; much curvier.

They maybe magnetic, 'cos when my friend (Aristotle from STW)had a bad mtb accident and had to be helicoptered off, they all rushed over to the big metal bird that had fallen out of the sky.
Good job the helicopter landed just behind the wall.

definitely magnetic, that why when you ride past the all rotate and look like they're staring at you... they're actually pulled by magnetic force towards your bike frame.

people with carbon bikes have less cow related accidents i hear, a safety feature the manufacturers forget when marketing such modern wizardry!

Cows always point into the wind. Dunno why.
