"The new technology allows farmers to take advantage of mating opportunities as they come." Texting, artificial insemination-- the life of a cow/farmer ain't what it used to be.

Couldn't they just set up accounts on Bovine Mingle or something like that? Seems creepy to have to get the farmer involved as a middleman in something like this.

Have you ever herd a more mooooving story?
What exactly do the texts say, in German, Italian or French?
"Hoof it on over for some hairy dairy . . ."

Here's a link to the original NY Times article, "Swiss Cows Send Texts to Announce They’re in Heat."
So do Swiss teenagers.

"Without a cow in heat to work with, however, the success rate of reproduction allegedly diminishes."
Not just a bovine problem, either. It's the story of my life.
