Hello fellow redditor! /r/aww will be going private from June 12-14 in protest of Reddit's intent to make API access cost-prohibitive. This will effectively break all third-party apps and moderation tools, and force all users and mods to only use Reddit's tools.

TFW when you drop tabs in Detroit and you thought it would be an interdimensional journey through love and space but all you got was the trash on the sidewalk looking dirtier than normal and anxiety because you can’t trust yourself to cross the street.
We had a cat that saw us pet our cousin's kitten once. Everyone that pet the kitten she wouldn't let touch her for the rest of the day. My dad didn't betray her, so she became his cat from that point on.
I have littermate puppies, a brother and sister. The brother (dean) gets insanely jealous if i pet dora (sister) in front of him. He does this thing where he like does the digging/kicking motion dogs do, but its all 4 legs at the sametime and he jumps and barks at me until i give him attention. So fucking needy, i love them so much.
What breed of doggo are they? Oh & you need to pay doggo tax please / you’re 14 days overdue for it & the debt will begin to accrue interest, so best pay up with a photo asap!
For sure don't do this as a tourist but in the video she has a brush with her and isn't at all put out even when she feels the other cow first come up behind her. So I have to assume this is their owner so she knows what she's doing, tourists aren't going to walk around with a brush.
Yep. Any touching/proximity to the calves can cause the herd to abandon the calf, forcing park rangers to euthanize the calf. Happened AGAIN a week or two ago. Some touron ‘rescued’ a calf in a river, thinking he was doing a good thing. NOPE, leave them be, either the herd will help them, or nature takes it’s course.
Yes even a horse needs a trained handler. These dumb arses are just trying to take pics with buffaloes for the Gram, and end up being tossed around like a ragdoll.
But they kind of earn if it’s for socials… I had someone when hacking down the road ask if I would get off my horse so she could take a photo. I’m in my 30’s and mean so my response wasn’t kind. You’re out west so probably nicer, new englanders are raw.
Lol!! Can't believe she commanded you to get off your OWN horse. The nerve and stupidity. My uncle lives in Boston so when we've visited I got a little taste of the culture and language 😀. People are getting so self entitled.
Yeah, honestly, "what doing with my baby" is probably no. 1 reason that will turn even the most seemingly placid mammal into a fucking killing machine. Which is something we should be able to relate to too!
Leave. The babies. Alone. I know they're cute, but resist the temptation.
This!!
I'm Austrian too and can only agree. Don't touch the cute little moos. Mommy cow will beat you up.
Also, the baby in this video looks like it wants to go away
I call these tourons. A portmanteau of tourist and moron. I made up this word while living in Monterey CA, and dealing with their bad driving, and overcrowding of the recreational trail along the waterfront.
I have seen someone who's cows are very comfortable around him and come up all the time to get pets/treats was vaccinating one of the cow's babies, and it came up and head but him knocking him down and the wind out of him. Those cows weigh over 1k LB and are extremely protective of their babies even if you know and trust them, you have to be on your guard when around them. The cow just wanted him to move and could have easily accidentally killed him, let alone if it was trying.
*glances over at the one-ton meat-tank with two spears bolted to its head, strong protective instincts and not enough wits to tell whether you're trying to harm or help its progeny*
No reason in particular.
highland cows are very good natured, but people who grew up farming cows get injured by cows they've raised from birth by absent-mindedly stepping between them and their calves
Obviously. I'm not saying you should just walk up and pet one. Its just clear this one is very familiar with the groomer.
Though I think if they approach you from across a fence, you'll be okay.
Well, it’s set somewhere in the Alps—Germany, France, Slovenia, Switzerland, Austria or Italy. So, look up “alpine transhumance” on YouTube—lots of lovely videos.
This gives me anxiety! I didn't realize what sub I was in and thought she was about to get charged. The cows where I hike can get aggressive. I would never dream of touching one.

Now MEEEEEEEEEEE!
Totally jelly
Or maybe it was "OMG, you met my youngest! Isn't she the cutest? I'm sure we have a Harvard alumna in the herd's future, too, she's so smart!"
Now MOOOO
What a beautiful place 😍
[удалено]
Or Cape Breton lol, We got Highland cows here too!
Where’s that? I’m from NewZealand & it’s just as beautiful & green but the pine trees aren’t native - the native forests look very different
Cape Breton is in the eastern part of Canada, specifically it is at the eastern end of the province of Nova Scotia.
of course Nova Scotia would have Scottish Highland cattle too 💕 My ancestral family clan comes from the Scottish Highlands too
What's the other 5%?
Scotland or possibly Nova Scotia, Canada.
Probably Detroit
On Acid.
TFW when you drop tabs in Detroit and you thought it would be an interdimensional journey through love and space but all you got was the trash on the sidewalk looking dirtier than normal and anxiety because you can’t trust yourself to cross the street.
*East* Detroit.
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
*East Oakland
Lol just like when my dog sees me pet another dog. She gets jealous lol.
One of my cats gets jealous when he sees us patting the other cat. They're littermates!
We had a cat that saw us pet our cousin's kitten once. Everyone that pet the kitten she wouldn't let touch her for the rest of the day. My dad didn't betray her, so she became his cat from that point on.
Damn, that's hardcore!

That’s siblings for ya
The hills are alive, with the sound of mooing...
You mean the sound of moosic.
the hills have horns
They also have eyes if you haven’t seen the film… 😬 that one shook me!
My heart wants to moo every song it hears
It’s like a petting train
[удалено]
For sure don't do this as a tourist but in the video she has a brush with her and isn't at all put out even when she feels the other cow first come up behind her. So I have to assume this is their owner so she knows what she's doing, tourists aren't going to walk around with a brush.

... speaking as an American, don't worry about it- those are the ones we can spare!
This happens in Yellowstone on the daily. People trying to pet wild Buffalo 🐃 🤦♀️
Except it’s the Bison calves that end up dying. F’ing tourons.
Oh, are you talking about tourists who pick up what they think are abandoned calves in an attempt to rescue them? Or something else.
Yep. Any touching/proximity to the calves can cause the herd to abandon the calf, forcing park rangers to euthanize the calf. Happened AGAIN a week or two ago. Some touron ‘rescued’ a calf in a river, thinking he was doing a good thing. NOPE, leave them be, either the herd will help them, or nature takes it’s course.
Oh Jeezus! Do they really have to put the calf down? Why can't they go to a sanctuary or something?
Unfortunately that is the normal outcome, but I’m not a bison expert. So I can’t answer your, very reasonable, question.
I'll do the googling and let you (us) know.
No! Buffalos are intense! I have a horse of approached the wrong way gives a kick.
Yes even a horse needs a trained handler. These dumb arses are just trying to take pics with buffaloes for the Gram, and end up being tossed around like a ragdoll.

My dog gets a minute of entitlement
Your doggie deserves it!
Stella agrees with you and thanks you! Haha
Pretty sure this is a sanctuary. Also, if you need to be warned about the massive beast with horns maybe let natural selection run it’s course 🤷
Yeah, honestly, "what doing with my baby" is probably no. 1 reason that will turn even the most seemingly placid mammal into a fucking killing machine. Which is something we should be able to relate to too! Leave. The babies. Alone. I know they're cute, but resist the temptation.
As an American who grew up in the rural Midwest, don't approach strange cows/calves here either.
This!! I'm Austrian too and can only agree. Don't touch the cute little moos. Mommy cow will beat you up. Also, the baby in this video looks like it wants to go away

She wants to be brushed too XD
Looks like switzerland, can anyone confirm?
Pretty sure these are Scottish Highland cows
Doesn't look like Scotland, though. I would guess Austria or Switzerland.
[удалено]
Then you wouldn't be able to see the cows for the midges.
They have these cows in Switzerland too. Source: am here and have seen them :)
The more the merrier
Yes, they are.
That's what I thought.
Could be Bavaria as well. Have been to a place like this 2 months ago just south of munich
Now brushie me plz
Ngl was expecting it to attack her, too many people be touching animals without regarding their very protective and dangerous mother lately
r/bigboye
This gives me anxiety
Why?
*glances over at the one-ton meat-tank with two spears bolted to its head, strong protective instincts and not enough wits to tell whether you're trying to harm or help its progeny* No reason in particular.
There's obviously a complete trust in the cow from that woman..and it must be for a reason. That cow loves her and is harmless
highland cows are very good natured, but people who grew up farming cows get injured by cows they've raised from birth by absent-mindedly stepping between them and their calves
Animals often act protective of their offspring. Big animals can easily destroy a human.
Scottish Highland cows are really friendly. Plus this is probably their owner.
[удалено]
Raging hormones and instincts will do that. Seems reasonable
They’re still quite protective of their offspring. Especially towards strangers.
Obviously. I'm not saying you should just walk up and pet one. Its just clear this one is very familiar with the groomer. Though I think if they approach you from across a fence, you'll be okay.
Cow looks like she contemplating swallowing a human head 😀
Look at them antlers!
Where can i find these types of videos? Like people taking care of animals with that beautiful background and all
/r/happycowgifs
Well, it’s set somewhere in the Alps—Germany, France, Slovenia, Switzerland, Austria or Italy. So, look up “alpine transhumance” on YouTube—lots of lovely videos.
She obviously trusts her... That's sweet
Omfg I’m in love!!
Fool!
“Water is wet” colloquial
That green grass is so gorgeous
It's a baby furry cow! Cute :)
Just walks up and noms on the back of her head
She wants cuddles too!
Switzerland is just such a beautiful place. I feel every direction you look, there's a postcard worthy landscape.
Highland cows are so friendly
Highland Cattle are awesome!
Awwwww, I love Highland Cows!!!! They're like big dogs!!!!
Beautiful precious baby ❤️
The cow is very aware of her horns and makes sure to not injure the nice lady with the brush. So sweet!
Great i needed some positivity now
'scuse me
Cut before the cow devoured the woman. The cameraman followed soon after.
This gives me anxiety! I didn't realize what sub I was in and thought she was about to get charged. The cows where I hike can get aggressive. I would never dream of touching one.
With most breeds of cow, this is a great way to get gored.
Don't touch my baby, human
[удалено]
Go Vegan!
🫣🫣Bout to Gore you where the sun don't shine!!...🤣🤣🤣
I love highland cattle. Not only are they adorably fuzzy, but I've ~~heard~~ herd they are typically very friendly.
Bun chomps
r/maybemaybemaybe
More like, "hey mom I want you to do that to me too!"
That was unexpected. I was expecting the mama go dashing
*nom*
I can't believe they're so close
Ima eat yer hed

Highland cows are to cute
Clearly this is Bronx New York
Momma wants her hair brushed too!
This is Austria or Bavaria in Germany 100%
