Allegedly injured 5 others.

Imagine how bad it could have been if they were cyclists.

How did this kind of violence make it past the filters?

Something not quite so violent:

I don’t think people realize the raw power these animals have unless they have dealt with them. Even yearlings will seriously fuck you up if you are not careful. Saw a month old calf once nearly crush a kneecap with a kick and an old man who laid in a lot for a full day until he was found paralyzed from a bull. I have broken bones, separated cartilage from floating ribs etc from being caught by bulls myself. There’s a reason most old ranchers look like hell. Everyone of us who have cattle have train wreck stories and scars but these animals are on a different level.

Having spent just at least half my life working with big animals, what you say is very true. (Sold farm in 1992 and built a lake house) Cows, horses, and hogs can very easily cause death or very serious injury to a fairly frail group such as human beings. You may think you are one tough hombre, but a thousand pound horse can pick you up and throw you around like a rag doll. Each hind quarter has more muscle than a 250 pound well built man has in his entire body.

Cow. Had a nice heifer.. trying to coral her, she went though a brand new 5 wire barbed fence like it was wet spaghettini. Had a really nasty brahma feeder calf. A crazier and meaner animal has never lived (except maybe hillary clinton) Finally trapped him in my corral. Had to put a full sized pick up truck agains each gate to keep him from destroy the gate and escaping. He was butting the gate so hard, it actually moved the pickup back a bit.

My father-in-law was nearly killed by a sow. All’s he was doing was feeding her. She went crazy.

Big animals are just that big. Humans don’t qualify. (As big, even those 1000 pounders that keep getting featured in other parts of Snipershide.)
