        Do you have qualifications that exceed (or equal) those of the individuals who wrote the article I linked

        this is an incredible ham-fisted appeal to authority. what i said is true or false regardless of how well qualified your (irrelevant) authors are.

        the linked article doesn’t support the claim being made.

    If a cow escapes the pasture, I wouldn’t be surprised to find it dead in 20 minutes. They require the aid of fences and the protection of farm dogs in the vast majority of environments they live in. Whoever is getting cattle to live 20 years is not doing so naturally, far from it
