Pic: Kilkenny man gets an unwelcome ‘hug’ from young calf

This is gas

Priceless…

JOE reader, Liam Walsh, sent us in the following picture of one of his calves getting a little too close for comfort.

Just a hazard of the job, we guess.

Speaking to JOE, Liam said: “After this particular calf was born it got sick and every evening after school I had to nurse the calf by feeding him milk.

“The calf was very quiet and tame and he took to me. This happened when I put him out to grass and some fencing wire broke. When I went over to fix it he started to mount me.

“He’s a very playful calf and follows me everywhere. He’s like a pet really.”

“My cousin wrote the caption, by the way.”
