One of the SO's very own got to stick his hand inside a real live cow stomach over the weekend.

I think Dean should put him to work this coming weekend. Hook 'em

You haven't lived until you've helped pull a cross-ways calf.

I'd like to point out that it was from the side, not the front or the back. Thank you.

I still can't figure that out. How do they keep the cow from bleeding to death?

They cauterize the hole when they make it, just like they do when they do surgery on people, not much blood. The risk I'd think is of infection, given the open hole. But then it opens into the stomach with lots more bacteria in there, so maybe it's not so bad. I dunno.

Was this one of K-State's porthole cows?

FWIW, cows have more than one stomach.

And if you go through their rectum, you ain't gonna reach their stomach/s. I've been shoulder deep, and was still about 76 feet of intestine short of their stomach/s.

Pool? I had just swum the English Channel. In January.
