The June 19th New Yorker has a quote from the Walden Colorado Jackson County Star:
On Aug. 9, a gate was left open along Highway 14 west of Walden and several head of cattle left a perfectly good pasture with some of the lushest grass in years to go stand on asphalt.
Three things:
- 1. They waited a year to print this?
- 2. Cattle are dumb, really dumb (but I guess most city people don’t know it).
- 3. From the cattle’s perspective, the objective was to escape.
