Dad said that back years ago the place right next door had an owner for a few years who didn't feed or care for his cows. These were milk cows in a stanchion barn. He said they stood there in so much manure that they were almost standing on their heads. He said Grandpa took his own hay up there and fed them a few times because he felt so sorry for the cows. A local cattle hauler came across a similar situation. He ended up calling the local county animal control. I don't think the guy ever actually had any charges brought against him. He just agreed to let the cows be sold. A friend said he came across the same thing not long ago. He went to look at a bull and found a barn full of dead cows. He said the only one alive had broken her stanchion and was running loose. Before I did anything,I think I'd make D@MNED sure they weren't being fed somewhere that you're not seeing it and just licking at the ground for a simple lack of minerals or something. My sister made the mistake of sticking her nose in a situation when she was in high school trying to be a do gooder. She had seen a dog tied up and was told by one of her friends that the folks had moved away. They were just on vacation and somebody else was taking care of them. If you DO call anybody,call the county animal control,not some extremist organization. Animal control will most likely get them fed where they are,not go in like storm troopers trying to take them away right off the bat.
