I was ready for a big discussion about how the farmer was a serial cow-fucker because after he fucked a cow a couple of times he’d get tired of her and move on to a new one, and I was really wondering if someone who fucked cows would be able to tell a difference between them and be more attracted to some than to others. I guess I better go over to GQ and find out.

Back to the OP, Sublight, do you have a link for this? If it’s true, that a crying shame, particularly the inaction of the government ministries.

Oh, all right. I should have titled it “My rage burns with the heat of a flame-broiled Whopper” so as not to get you beastiality fans all worked up.

Here’s a [link](http://www12.mainichi.co.jp/news/mdn/search-news/834700/bse-0-5.html) to an article at the Mainichi Daily News (in English), which includes links to several related stories. I particularly love this quote from the Agriculture Ministry as to why they initially announced the carcass had been destroyed.

> “It was a simple misunderstanding. The ministry’s head of the livestock section jumped the gun after hearing that the suspected cow was put down,” a ministry spokesman said Friday night. “He said he thought the carcass was reduced to ashes because whenever he saw overseas images of infected cows being put down, they were always incinerated.”

And this is the head of the Ministry of Agriculture’s Livestock Section??? **WTF?!** How did he get the job? Is he even _slightly_ familiar with what goes on at a farm on a day-to-day basis? Does the Japanese government make a habit of hiring clueless incompetants?

Nit-note:  
There is no word BEASTiality. It’s BESTiality, and pronounced “best”.

Have we finally found out what a cow orker is?

And **ageless6** is right, it’s bestiality, not beastiality. Sorry, I remember covering that one in 3rd grade, but I guess I forgot it.

Shouldn’t that be the other way around?

Thanks, now you’ve got this song stuck in my head;

“Oh, I could fuck a thousand cows,  
and every one a twin -  
I could fuck an Holstein cow,  
Gurnsey or Brah-min”

What does a cow say when you fuck it?

Moo.

The punch line to the veterinarian who could talk to the animals joke:

Don’t believe anything that old ewe tells you. She lies.
