This Giant Cow is an International Sensation
Nov 30, 2018
Every other day internet is obsessed with something and their current obsession is the steer Knickers. A neutered bull is whooping 6 feet 4 inches from hoof to shoulder and is taller than other cows.
Geoff Pearson the owner said: “I didn’t expect it to go as far as it has. I’ve been called every 10 minutes since four o’clock this morning,” Knickers was first bought as a “coach” – a steer that leads other cattle – at the age of about 12 months. “He was always a standout steer from the others, a bit bigger than the rest,”
Pearson also told that Knickers was too heavy to go to the slaughterhouse. “We have a high turnover of cattle, and he was lucky enough to stay behind,”
As per Australian media Knickers is believed to be the tallest steer in the country and weighs about 1.4 tons. Instead of becoming steaks and burgers, 7-year-old Knickers will get to live out his life in Pearson’s fields in Lake Preston, southwest of Perth.
Check out how people reacted when they got to know about Knickers:

How can I be expected to sleep at night when there's people out there who think Knickers The Giant Steer is a cow. What if it was a dairy herd. Where in cattle anatomy do they think milk comes from. What have they been milking.
