Cow Obstetrician

On his farm south of Strathmore, Alta., Trevor Wathen prepares to assist this cow in delivering a calf by first washing her with a mixture of warm water and an antiseptic. After watching this cow labour for over an hour without making any progress, Trevor decided it would be safer for the cow and calf to manually pull the calf. KEVIN LINK PHOTOS
