       @shapr @Pepijn sat on a cow or a calf? I don&#39;t think I ever have. Sat on a horse, sure. Never on a cow or a calf. Bottle-fed calves. Bailed hay. Drank milk fresh out of the bulk tank. Never sat on a cow I guess...

       Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.While talking to a colleague it came up that they have never sat on a cow. Like, not even once in their childhood.Another colleague listening in admitted they also have never sat on a cow.My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life sat on a cow.🐃 🐄 🐮Have you sat on a cow?Please boost for scientific accuracy.

       @PepijnNo, but I have been sat on by a cow. How does that count?

       @Pepijn I&#39;ve sat on horses, ponies and donkeys, but never a cow  - I suspect this is partly because they are harder to train to accept riders, but also UK farmers didn&#39;t want 1970s/80s kids getting too attached to cattle for fear that more of them would become vegetarian/vegan..

       @vfrmedia @Pepijn Same - horses and (I think) once a donkey - I never even seen anybody sitting on a cow, or that it was something you could/would do. Do people ride them or why would you do that?

       @Malm @vfrmedia So. Looking at the current poll numbers I&#39;m starting to have a suspicion my hypothesis will be disproven.There&#39;s two ways I thought this could be people&#39;s lived experience:1) At primary school during an excursion to a petting zoo or dairy farm. And then just to sit (with or without saddle) for a bit on a friendly dairy cow.2) Subset of people, growing up with access to dairy farms: kids bumbling around trying to actually ride the cow.(I personally check both boxes)

       @PepijnBut cows are huge! especially if you&#39;re a child. How would you even get on top of one?Also, grandma always said &quot;don&#39;t come near the cow or it&#39;ll kick you&quot;@Malm @vfrmedia

       @Pepijn I wonder if I did, I know I petted some cows (drooly :D) and rode on ponies/horses/donkeys/…Leaning towards no so voting no.

       @Pepijn every time i have been in a situation to sit on a cow it has been plain to both me and the cow that if i attempted to do this the cow would cause me severe bodily harm.one time a cow chased me. or rather, chased a van, which i was riding in the back of. it seemed upset about something. it was successfully keeping pace with the van. i am quite certain had it caught up the van would have been more damaged than it has. i had many thoughts, none of them &quot;i could have ridden that thing&quot;
