B.C. Dairy Mobile Lab

What a MOO-ving experience!  We were treated to a presentation featuring Libby, the Holstein dairy cow, and her new baby calf.  Did you know that cows have FOUR stomachs?  Guess what… a brown cow still gives WHITE MILK. (Did you think it was chocolate milk? LOL!) Libby showed us her loooooong tonguealmost 30 cm!  Mrs. Boekhout learned that cows don’t have any front upper teeth!  Verrrry interesting!  We got to see the milking machine in action.  The baby calf, Lilac, certainly enjoyed her BIG bottle of milk too.  Lilac was only 2 weeks old!
