Fake ‘Love’ Cows
Status: Strange News
Ambreed, a New Zealand cattle breeding company, has developed a fake cow to collect semen from bulls. The fake cow is "a small go-kart with natural cowhide on its roof" (kind of like a Real Doll, but for cows). It's been exhibiting this fake cow at the Fieldays agricultural exhibition in New Zealand, promoting the device with live "sex shows" of bulls mounting the device. Here's how it works: The go-kart, driven by a human operator, draws close to a bull and adjusts to the proper height. The experience can be a little alarming. "It's quite a daunting feeling when you consider you've got a bull there that weighs a thousand kilograms sitting on top of you and is in quite an aggressive mood," Andrew Medley, production manager at Ambreed, told Reuters.
I tried to find a picture of the fake cow, but haven't been able to find one. (Thanks to Gary for the story.)

There is nothing new about the artificial cow, NASCO in Fort Atkinson, WI has been manufacturing them for years.

I didn't think this was new...

The only thing I found on their site that was even remotely close to the "Fake 'Love' Cow" was the "Wiggle Buddy(tm) Cow Key Chain".

I agree, this is nothing new. This has been around for ages, it is done with horses too to collect semen from stallions.
I guess its the time of the year that makes these things "news". Expect Nessi to surface again soon too.

It's not an old story until you've heard it...

Isn't there a Greek legend about a woman inside a cow being impregnated? I think she eventually gave birth to the Minotaur.

Yep, you're right, Dale. Read this <a >Minotaur legend</a> to get the full story.
