These calves think they have to jump over the white line and it’s utterly hypnotic

Once you start watching this it’s difficult to stop, this herd of calves who think the white line in the middle of this road is rather more than just, well, a white line in the middle of the road.

Totally hypnotic.

💕So cute. I am also interested in the following question – are the others following what the first one did or do they see it differently from us? Any vets or farmers out there who can answer?

They have poor depth perception, so it looks a bit scary to them as They can’t see it’s just a line on the road. I don’t know cows I just remembered a post on reddit this morning about this vid 😊

Surely this is just their version of don't step on the cracks we've all played as a kid…

On that note – what do goats do in same situation ?

I think they do a ewe turn.
