Giving birth is a very stressful time and this cow nailed it. This comfortable and clean spot at the Ontario Dairy Research Centre (Elora, Ontario) allowed this cow to deliver a cute baby that looks just like her. In just a few minutes after calving this cow stands strongly and healthy to begin a new lactation, and her calf stands strongly and healthy to start a new life.
