I would say, at least 7. On the left and the right borders of the #photo the #cow outlines begin to blur somehow, so you cannot tell whether there are two or three single individuals.
I wonder if brown bears (Ursus arctos) had the sense to stay away from the herds of cows people used to release in the woods for the summer in olden times Finland. There would be plenty to eat and a large-ish cow with horns and a dozen friends would probably not be the first meal to consider what with plentiful berries and mushrooms... But I do wonder.
For reference, here's a stock photo of some heritage breed but modern Kyyttö cows in a forest from an organic operation, because it's amazing.
@sinituulia Usually, #Bear|s are shy and whilst a "Murder Carpet" ain't smart, Apex Predators are opportunistic and rarely want to "Fuck Around And Find Out"...
They might just associate #Cow|s with other hooved animals like #Karibou|s, #Elk|s and #Moose and just avoid them entirely...
After all: Why risk getting trampled into past tense when other food sources are more convenient or at least with far less risk?
OC I heard we're posting beans. This is Bean and his multicolored beans.
