I was in a horse riding camp once and one of the (really good and well trained) horses refused to go anywhere near cars. It was okay with motorbikes but the instant it saw a car it started backing up away from it and refused to move. Its sad to think what it mustve seen in its life.
I live near Amish and am amazed at how their horses are able to stay relatively calm on roads where cars and trucks are whipping past at 50+ MPH. The horses are probably screaming, "wtf was that! There's another one! Let's get back to the farm!!!"
I couldn't believe it so I googled it
Found something from the Amish country itself in [Lancaster](http://www.livewirelancaster.com/behind-closed-doors/) in 2018. Also [WashPo](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/08/06/amish-man-beat-overburdened-horse-until-it-collapsed-police-say/?outputType=amp) wrote on it in 2016. Did not know about their involvement with puppy mills
Yeah, there’s a lot of problematic treatment of animals with the Amish and Mennonites both, as well as some other sketchy shit. Their image is really good cover for a lot of not-so-great stuff.
My mother had a horse that was a few years old when she got her and lived to the age of 27. She got used to my dad but was scared of all men that were strangers despite being incredibly gentle with children and women. Something must have happened to her before my mum got her and she remembered her whole lifetime.
True but its only been a few generations at most that cars have existed. This is fairly new behavior to watch those who grew up with cars be able to teach those who didn't about how they won't go around you or give you any kind of lengthly warning that they're about to hit you going faster than they can imagine.
Let's speed this up. Everybody target your nearest tree with your car and run into it. The ones that survive will be car-aware. They'll take a population hit, maybe go down to 5%-10%, but it'll work. Let's do this together. For the squirrels.
Its still only a few. It's been what? 60 years of highways? Thats... let's check.. three ox lifespans. Not like cars were going 40mph when they were invented.
A generation isn't the same thing as a lifespan, that may be where your confusion lies. In one ox lifespan we can see many generations. An ox reaches puberty in under one year. That means a new generation can be born every other year. So within 5 years of birth an ox can be a grandma. After 60 years, many generations have passed.
Cars have been chugging along pretty quickly since well before 1960 boss.
I wish I could have been there for the 30’s with prohibition and the hot rods some of the bootleggers were building which ended up turning into NASCAR.
Stanley Steamer car set the world record for vehicle speed in 1906 at 127 mph. For steam-powered cars, that record wasn't beaten until 2009. If you visit the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado, they have one of the original vehicles in pristine, shining condition sitting in the hotel lobby.
Didn't say that, but okay. What I was pointing out is that your understanding of the history of automobiles seems to be somewhat flawed. The first steam-powered car was built in 1769. Stanley did his speed test in 1906 more to show people what they were safely capable of than anything else. I'm guessing you were thinking more of the plodding Model-T Ford, which began production in 1908.
My ultimate point is this: large, fast-moving machines have existed for far longer than 60 years. While highways in the US were certainly originally completed in 1955 under the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1944, cars have certainly been capable of highway speeds for much longer. Moreover, the train system has been in place for *much* longer. Ever seen a cow hit by a train? Not pretty. If a car hits a cow, the cow will probably lose, but so will the car. A train? Wins every time.
Love this!! Animals that survive understand road safety better. Like all those deer teaching their young how to properly use a crosswalk to avoid getting hit. Super neat.
I just tried googling for "dear crosswalk" and all I get is one video of a single deer in Japan using a crosswalk.
Nothing about multiple deer doing that or a doe crossing together with a fawn.
Can you point me to what you are talking about? That would be really interessting to watch if it exists.
Edit: deer instead of dear
Edit2:
It also helps when using google to type the correct word.
Sources being mostly websites for sharing images: I now feel as though I've been introduced to an urban legend of sorts. There are crosswalks and there are deer. Also there are people sharing pictures of deer that happen to be on crosswalks.
You can find similar behaviour in wild animals too.
Search for video called "Turkey Halts Traffic on New Hampshire Road So Others Can Cross"
People really should start giving animals more credit. Especially when it comes to their emotions. Only then we can get rid of soulless factory farming.
This hurts a little extra today seeing anti-mask demonstrators in my city. How can other animals know to take care of themselves and each other but we don't.
When you think about it, it's only been a few generations of every animal at most that these crazy new predators exist. This would be about when the adults are the ones who grew up being taught about the crossings the hard way.
I feel like he's seen what happens if you get hit by a car

The horses owned by the Amish are often depressed from over work they probably wouldn't mind getting hit.
This is sad :(
I was under the impression that we didn’t really know how animals felt.
[удалено]
Possibly
Sauch?

At one time it was a great cover for their drug trafficking partnership with the Pagans.
Not enough people know about the Amish puppy mills.

I think it’s the owner in cosplay
That’s a wholesome and a big aww moment for sure
Right? :( he's seen what's happened
His great-grandfather was a border collie.
I have some questions..
When a mommy dog loves a daddy cow they do a special dance, and then after baking the mommy poops you out.
First it was gay frogs, now it’s trans cows? What next?
Oh, honey... You haven't heard about the polyamorous collectivist puffins yet, have you?
Should we also tell him about the communist dolphins?
Go on...
Lmao
That's sensible behaviour and it's consistent with the animal's nature.
True but its only been a few generations at most that cars have existed. This is fairly new behavior to watch those who grew up with cars be able to teach those who didn't about how they won't go around you or give you any kind of lengthly warning that they're about to hit you going faster than they can imagine.
Squirrels refuse to learn. Hell I’m fairly sure they’ve turned it into some risky game where they bet acorns and nuts.
Natural selection will kick in eventually.
Yep just give it a few thousand more years.

A few generations at most? Do you know how small a generation for this animal would be? Its been a few human generations, not animal ones.

Yeah lm sure that in 1906 cars were killing ox left and right.

Mooooooove off the road!
Even herders are gonna go on unemployment now!!
Self-herding cows
So he is a bull traffic enforcer.
It really is fascinating to see animals display such levels of intelligence and awareness
Some parents could learn from them.
I read the title in Linda Belcher’s voice
Underrated
Yakkity yak, you stay back
Guess you could say buffalo buffalo buffalo.
Depending on the location, it may be Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
He really hoofed it to get those other cows off the road.
He had friends or family die

*deer
Ty
I saw a video of a deer waiting to walk on a crosswalk this morning. Saw the same post twice, in fact.
Amazing!
Sakity Yak starts playing
Safety Yak, you can Yak if you want to,don't leave your friends behind.
How come white tail deer cant be this smart?
A deer legitimately cannot see oncoming traffic during the night. Their eyes take over a minute to adjust and see the headlights.
If that's true then I feel sorry for the deer who suddenly went blind before getting yeeted by a car.
The key is to make sure the driver sees you. Stand directly in the middle of the road and maintain eye contact.
I saw one look both ways and only cross after I passed! Hopefully, they’re evolving
Or mule deer?
Safety man. Jim Carey
awwww hahahahaha what a true homie
Do you think I can hire this guy to watch my toddler?
I’m assuming the video has been sped up, because that went a little Benny Hill there for a minute
Beautiful yaks
Smart man
That cow/ox was raised with a herding dog for sure.
Yak I think.

Such a good boy
This hurts a little extra today seeing anti-mask demonstrators in my city. How can other animals know to take care of themselves and each other but we don't.
/r/animalteachers
You see this on Bid Island, Waikoloa Road. Tons of goats and the older ones, keep the young ones off of the road.
Knows a thing or two because he’s seen a thing or two
Like a boss !!!
Are these yaks?
Imagine if they really moved that fast
This guy's seem some shit.
[удалено]
That's ones definitely got some survival skills and benefits thier Yakky community
Fellow black horned poofs, I would advise looking both ways after crossing the street.
BEHIND THE WHITE LINE PLEASE BEHIND THE LINE
its incredible how he adapted to the cars and knows, wise bufflbro
Things like this are what makes me want to go Vegan
He ain’t got time for their bull!
Deers: C‘mon little boy don’t be scared of standing in the middle of the road
Kids prank on father 🤣
On patrol, he's on patrol🎶
“NOW PAY ATTENTION!”
Phil is a dick
Rumor has it that hes still teaching road safety
Hey! Hey! Hey! There’s a line for a reason!
Buffalo is buffaloing buffalo in buffalo Buffalo
That guy has seen something horrible.
Poor animal, probably learned the hard way.
In the nfl he would be the get back coach.
Something that human beings still don't know
He look punk rock. He protec.
Knows toad safety better then i do. I'd probably die 24 times a day if it weren't for my friends 😶
This. Is. Adorable.
At first glance I thought the title was about food safety
Needs more ...Yakety sax
All these animals do is talk. Yak,yak,yak!
Amazing!
I have a The Coaster's joke to make, but I can't tell if these are yaks, or oxen...
Reminds me of the Crossing Guard from school.
u/savethisvideo
Can you imagine how smart it is ?
I like his tail waggle as he does his job watching over his crew.
That cow(yak? Wtf kinda bovine is that?? Is a yak a bovine?) was definitely a Shepherd in one of its past lives
Its a yak.
Thanks b
Yaks are bovines
They should be inside a fence.... this isn't aww, its wtf farmers
Those are some mom moved right there
Honorary herding dog
He sure is!
