    Talking Coos Moos

    Did any one else pick up on the report that coos have regional accents?
    I am wondering if any of you farmers have noticed this fact and if so how is your coo 's moo different to others?
    Or maybe the research was just a lot of BULL !

    I don't know about regional accents but coos have individual voices, just as people have. I can often tell which of my coos is roaring, unseen. And my coos sound different from my neighbour's coos - so perhaps there is something in it!

    Default Bloo coos

    The recent news report about cow’s accents stated that the creatures mimic the farmer’s accent.

    All I can say is that if the bovines surrounding my house mimicked their farmer then the air would be loud with ‘bloo coo’!!

    Don't know about coos but Sir Iain Noble claims his dog speaks Gaelic!
    He got it from an English speaking source but taught it to respond to Gaelic commands!
