The Village Cows
 
Okay, I admit it I'm not all that interested in THE GAME today and trying to keep myself entertained. While I was out earlier I once again saw cows
roaming different pastures throughout TV. So does anyone have any idea
who these cows belong to and how they get moved around. Love seeing them around TV and hope they are around for a long time.:confused:

Herdsmen must come during the night or early morning to move them around as we've never seen any one during the day. Assume these cattle belong to the Developer. Sure miss the buffalo.

I love cows, hope they stick around.

Those of you who love cows, have apparently never had to get up at 4am to go out in the snow and milk them!

OK, that was a long time ago, and I've gotten over it....mostly.

These are my pets. They came with me from Wisconsin. ;)

Where was the buffalo that used to be here? Was he moved to make way for a neighborhood?

You might just be right, there is a big tax break if you have livestock on land.

Tells me there won't be anything on that land in the near future.

Remember when the buffalo roamed those same fields? Much more interesting than the cows

Not that long ago there were buffalo in a field down by Lake Sumter Landing.
That field is now called Creekside Landing.

Remember when the buffalo roamed those same fields. Much more interting than cows.

Can't answer your question, but have you driven along the 466a pastures toward Wildwood? There are a slew of newborns, and they are SO CUTE!! If you like the ows, you'll love these little ones.

Yes, I have seen them and hope the coyotes haven't.

I live near there and love listening to them!
