Cows are the earthly manifestation of pure evil. Look at those soulless black eyes... *shudders*

My bad.. I deleted the first most fierce looking one. Can easily do the rest

NB. Mine was a scary encounter too and I finally got it how it might have affected your long term health

There was a change of ownership.
