    The way she is being rejected by other mother cows is heartbreaking. 🙁

    Thanks Smithsonian, I appreciate the bout of depression you just gave me over Molly the cow. Keep up the good work. 🙄

    She NEEDS human interaction, feedings, touching, washing, brushing......keep as a pet with fellow cow interactions as well....

    There has to be a mother cow who has lost her calf that might bond with Molly.

    Farmers always separate the calves from their mothers

    Calling for her mother! But there is no reply! Because we are her
  • @pawshands9706
    DUH! Ofcourse cows feel deeply. If you must be scientific, why not study why time and again, our species continues to obliterate all others. Now that's baffling.

    Having something to eat will make her forget everything

    People are sick and selfish to eat animals. Not until you are met with a disease will you finally make that connection. Sad fate for you and for them.
