Live with the cows...finally a break in the fevers

What happens here

With the hay bale loaded, use a multi-tool knife, such as a Gerber Center Drive, to cut the twine or string holding the hay bale together. It is crucial to remove all string to prevent cattle from ingesting it, which can cause illness. Ensure the bale remains stable on the unroller after the strings are cut.

Goal: Remove twine from the hay bale.
