Maybe they were seeking some prime revenge and thought the BMW belonged to [Daisy Cowitt](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/woman-named-cowit-slams-cows-texting-cops-article-1.1506950) ---

Good thing they didn’t sit on the bumper, otherwise they would’ve calved it off the rest of the vehicle. ---

I drove my personal truck to an oilfield jobsite once upon a time, and one cow just wouldn’t stop licking the tailgate. I tried shooing it away, moving my truck, no dice. Damn thing had a fixation on the tailgate latch. Might have been the silicone I used on the plastic, stuff smelled like bubblegum. It didn’t do any damage at all, just weirded me out a little. Went back to that same place many times, never happened again, even the couple of times I was in the same truck. Cows is strange. But tasty. ---
