A cow in Australia is almost as tall as Michael Jordan and his size actually saved his life

I'm still trying to figure out how this cow saved Michael Jordan...

LMAO me too

I just clicked on the article for the first time. I had just assumed that this cow was spared because of warm-and-fuzzy feelings about his appearance; maybe he was a tourist attraction or something. 

Nope. He was just too big to fit in the processing equipment. 

And they say size doesn’t matter.

I wonder if that cow is aware of how much bigger he is than the others? 

Just like, whenever I see a corgi I wonder if it’s envious of the dogs with the normal legs. 

But then you have to wonder if Corgis know that the Queen Of England ranks them at #1...

I'm glad he's being put to pasture instead of slaughtered. That's nice.

(no cow deserves to be slaughtered)

Yup just bible toting white guys.

White guys? That guy was Asian.

I think Cincy was referencing the guy who died on that island.

Yes, so am I. That guy wasn't white, lol.

Hahaha fair enough, I let what I normally read here creep into my writing.  Let's be honest though, everyone would be even more ok with it if he was white

If "everyone" includes me, that isn't true at all.

Well, clearly not Ms. Nobody. And you tried to claim you were single, but your spouse ratted you out:

The 7-year-old Holstein-Friesian is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 3,086 pounds. For reference, the average Holstein-Friesian dairy cow typically stands at 4 feet 10 inches and weighs 1,500 pounds, making Kickers a rather large outlier.

Jordan is at least 6'6".

I think they meant the cow is as looooooong as Jordan.

The height of the cow is 6' 4". Jordan is 2 inches taller.

Just nice clean air, good quality grass lol

Imagine the size of the brisket you could get off of that thing!  In general, though, the larger the size, the worse the quality of meat in cattle.  We like to butcher ours when they are roughly 800-1200 lbs.

So what’s your excuse?  And you may find this interesting as well:

“Interestingly, the strong association between childhood intelligence and adult vegetarianism is not replicated in the US.  Vegetarians in early adulthood do have significantly higher childhood intelligence in junior high and high school, but the difference is not large (101.5 vs. 99.3).  And it is only significant among women (101.4 vs. 98.5), not among men (101.7 vs. 100.1).”
