Several years ago I used to tell the young men I had hired at the time, not to worry about the cow whose calf we were tagging or cutting, that they wouldn't hurt them.  I was wrong.  In the fall of 2001 while tagging a newborn by myself, momma planted her head into my chest and could have done much worse as I was several feet away from my 4-whlr and flat on the ground trying to get my breath and recover.  I slept in the recliner for several weeks while my ribs healed.  The next spring in Iowa, a man was killed and a woman suffered a broken pelvis and cracked ribs while handling baby calves.   Be careful our there fellow ranchers.  Handling baby bovines is an accident waiting to happen.
