Riding a cow

A German teen who wasn't able to get a horse trained a cow to ride.

You can find the story here http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=4&ved=0CDAQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.yahoo.com%2Fs%2Fap%2F20110405%2Fap_on_re_eu%2Feu_germany_jumping_cow&ei=ZwebTe_8DM7dgQecydSMBw&usg=AFQjCNEgOdaZD-0ahGR5_5Ye5V4H8U-bDQ

I admire resourceful people. Seems that people used to ride young cows around farms in the past, according to the article. The teen says it took lots of training and the other cows are jealous of the treats given to her cow-pony, but horses join in when they ride.

Ahh jealousy.

Neighbors sometimes laugh. Skeptical at first they said. But yeah they ride together. That teen and the cow.

Ever feel as if you're breaking new ground using a resourceful approach? I see it all the time in the disability community. Funny the reactions it can get. But when it works that's what matters.
