They don't.
In fact they can't actually currently exist on their own. If a calf tried to feed off it's mother it would drown because the mothers produce far too much milk. They actually have to bottle feed the calves now.
- pvaldes 6y ago> If a calf tried to feed off it's mother it would drown because the mothers produce far too much milk. Yep, Isn't wonderful pseudoscience? It has all the answers and all are wrong and satisfactory. Animals -know- when they are satiated.
- soperj 6y agoIf that were actually true, there wouldn't be a obesity epidemic.
- pvaldes 6y agoWell, humans are a little special. This is true. But we were talking about milk, not candy-filled people. So far as I know, neither science nor empiric observations of farmers all around the world had supported the idea that if let alone a calf will suck milk until exploding. Vet handbooks don't describe this hypothetical condition and such obesity epidemic of calf is not happening anywhere. Not much different than claiming that people left on a lakeshore will drink water until getting sick or dying, because there is to much water. Nope; this is not what we observe in the real life. Therefore the original claim is just new-age ideology without any scientific base.
- teh_klev 6y agoI think you're gonna need to back up that extraordinary claim with evidence.
