No one has seen it walking forwards, right?

Ef Mee !
I'm over here by the split rail fence hurling ! Gack !
I had no idea a veterinarian had to perform such operations.
I briefly dated a jumping rider in the '70s, went riding on a huge blonde mare with a mind of it's own.
The creature had no means of steering !
Happily, someone grabbed the reins.
I had the distinct feeling that the horse was playing me. lol.
A s I began my walk back up the pasture from the creek, a few hundred yards, she looked at me and cut a big fart, whinnied.
lol.

I don't think you CAN see it walking forward. The front legs are bending in the opposite direction in the video. It's clearly being played in reverse.

I always was intrigued by old cowboy movies, and some auto shows, in which the wheels seemed to be going to opposite direction that one knew they should be going.

Just stroboscoping. Wheel rotation and related "problems" is cause by shutter speeds and types.

And wheels can easily change directions or stand still as speeds change.
Standard "Movie format" is 24fps so can strobe and stand still wheel matching that and 48 and other harmonics.
But now you have "Rolling shutter" etc and have more weird "problems."
Example: Many Prop Airplanes have bent props when running/flying and "taped" using most phones and many other digital cameras.

Not just veterinarians. As a cattleman, I have pulled more than a few calves myself (living mostly) , but a couple dead ones as well and have palpated cows to see if they were bred or open. (open means not pregnant) Dehorned, castrated, branded, have used trocars, relieved bloat, tube fed, and just about anything else needed to raise cattle.
As you can guess, I live in a very different world than most of the people here at PFF.

Yes, pulling calves can be hard work. I never had much to do with horses though. I had no clue what your bones were.

Merry Christmas,

Was pretty sure the bones were from a four-legged animal but, the multiple examples and lack of comparative scale left me confused, never considered the twins option.
I've pulled or helped pull calves, sheep and one horse colt. It ain't easy especially if the newborn is breached (hind end first), turning one around isn't the easiest thing in the world to do. Ended up calling the Vet out for that one.

Aren't you moving? I didn't do a search, but I thought I recalled an "all packed" thread?
maryjane DEC 27, 05:03 PM
I am indeed moving but not as quickly as I had previously hoped to.
