Social

tallest-cowDanniel, a 1-ton Holstein steer who stands at 6 feet, 4 inches, might take the title of world’s tallest cow. Danniel was bottle-raised by a California family who adopted him as a pet, according to the Sequoia Park Zoo. He’s currently visiting the Eureka zoo, where a veterinarian measured him. Danniel weighs a whopping 164 stones and his diet has a monster appetite to go with his, eating four times more than a cow each day. He puts away 100 pounds of hay, 15 pounds of grain, drinks 100 gallons of water, and produces 150 pounds of droppings every day. But despite his lofty height, Danniel is just like a ” big puppy ,” according to his proud owners

She also noted the steer’s loud mooing when hungry. The zoo’s animal care supervisor Amanda Auston said after a 30-day quarantine period, which is standard protocol to ensure the health of new animals, Daniel is slowly being introduced to other animals.

Blosom died in 2015 after suffering an irreparable leg injury. Prior to Blosom, the record for tallest cow was held by a 6 ft 2 in Holstein-Durham cross named Mount Katahdin, who died in a barn fire in 1923.
