Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 How does a cow get mad cow disease? they get mad cow when the people feed them rendered parts of other dead cows who are infected. In other words, farmers grind up dead cows (and other animals) and feed it to living cows as a supplement to their diet. When one of the dead cows is/was infected, it passes on to the living ones. Gross. The New Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Thanks Sheryl, Susie and Gene for the info. I had heard something about the feeding of their own neighbors before. Unfarkingbelievable! And yes " gross " Sheryl to put it mildly. That is some sick shiate. I don't care whether you are vegetarian or not, there is bound to be something messed up with that crap. So what is the deal here?....are they trying to save on the feed bill, or are they taking advantage of cattle which passes away and reusing them? There's bound to be mad cow here in the states...we just probably secretly came up with some type of synthetic formula to suppress or immunize the effects...MMMM boy I'm hungry!!! Shawn Once, during Prohibition, I was forced to live on nothing but food and water. - W.C. Fields ----Original Message Follows---- " Sheryl A. " <ssarndt Mad Cow How?
