'Holy cow' born with cross on forehead
A calf has stunned his owners after being born with a white marking on his
forehead in the shape of a cross.
Moses, who has been hailed as a "holy cow", was born last week at a dairy
farm in Sterling, Connecticut, a small rustic town on the Rhode Island
border.
The mostly brown calf is half Jersey, half Holstein. Local children gave
him his Biblical name.
His owner, Brad Davis, told WFSB-TV he thought the marking may be a
message from above, though he is still trying to worl out what that
message might be.
Ric Grummer, the chairman of the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Department of Dairy Science, told the Norwich Bulletin newspaper it is not
unusual for a Holstein cow to have a white marking on its head.
But Mr Grummer said the cross shape is unique.
