When an 800-pound cow stares you down, you take notice. When she’s a new mother with a pair of two-foot horns pointed in your direction because you’re a bit closer to her calf than she likes, you really take notice. “It’s all right,” Bruce Petesch calmly said to his heifer. “We’re not going to do anything. We just want to see.” The rust-colored calf was nestled in some tall grass away from the herd. It had been born the previous day and was still unsure of its surroundings. It’s a sight Petesch has witnessed seven times already this spring, and one that will happen again when the last of his pregnant cows gives birth in the next week or so.
