The DANGERS of FARMING! Cow JUMPS TRAILER could have caused SERIOUS PROBLEMS!

What happens here

With the stockyard transactions complete, Josh, his stepfather, and Michael return to Stoney Ridge Farm with the newly acquired cattle. The video shows the truck backing the cattle trailer up to a pasture gate. The cattle, consisting of three adult cows and three young heifer calves, are then gently guided out of the trailer and into their new pasture. This increases Josh's herd from 10 to 16 cows. The farmer anticipates a period of adjustment for the animals, especially for one weaned calf, and plans to leave them undisturbed for the night.

Goal: Safely transport and release new cattle into their designated pasture on the farm.
