Thunder Bay, Ontario, Great White North | Bunching together is a stress response for cows. When it's hot, they are stressed, so they bunch up, which makes them hotter, so they pack together tighter, you get the picture. Flies will cause the same reaction. As Tim says, they're bovine and female, no logic can be expected. We used to have lots of bunching on warm days in our holding area, we installed tunnel ventilation fans in 2003, it has made a huge difference. |
