The Swiss love their cows...

...but the extent of this love gets more and more puzzling! (NB: at least this cow does not stare)

Big Vaca is watching you!

Even in the most urban Swiss setting, in downtown Zurich, you cannot escape the Swiss cow's stare!

Buffalo stare!

The African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) belongs to the same subfamily of Bovinae like the ordinary cow. How do we know that? Well, see for yourself...

Staring Contest

http://kimjongillookingatthings.tumblr.com/post/1409755558/looking-at-cows

We all know that the late Kim Jong-Il liked to look at things. What is less known is that he also engaged in staring contests with cows. It is unknown how the contest documented in this picture ended. The cows certainly seem a bit shy in the presence of the Beloved and Respected Leader and don't stare as hard as they could. But this is just a snapshot. Maybe the cows overcame their timidness and the contest went on for hours. Maybe the Invincible and Ever-triumphant General decided he would not be defeated in a staring contest by a cow, after resisting capitalist enirclement for so long. After all, do we really know how this Amazing Politician died? Maybe a dissident cow stared him out of office...

Cows That Stare At Men

The truth is out! Cows stare on Youtube, too, and not all of them are as (eco-)friendly as the energeia cow, the bio-milk cow, or our Vaquita...

Staring Cows and Sustainable Energy

The Swiss are way ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to energy. Just check out the cover of the Swiss Federal Office of Energy's newsletter "Energeia" No. 4/2012. You might have never made the connection, but staring cows are relevant for energy production, too, at least in Switzerland. Staring cows are the future!

Ay qué vaca tan salada........

Staring cows from my childhood.
