Description
"Winter Cows On The Farm" by Debbie Oppermann. Driving the country roads near Fergus Ontario Canada I saw a herd of cows in a snow covered farmer's field. It was a bright sunny and bitterly cold winter's day and I wondered if the cows felt the cold, so I did some checking. In the winter, cows thick skin and hair is a natural insulator that protects them from the bitter cold. Their hairy coat grows longer and thicker in the winter. When it snows, the hair catches the snow and forms a layer over the cow. This creates an air pocket between the snow and the cow’s skin, which is then warmed by the cow’s natural body temperature of 102 degrees. Learn something new every day!
