A video, released by animal welfare organisation SAFE, demonstrated the moment a mother cow tried her best to chase after a trailer which took her three calves away from her.
According to Safe (Save Animals From Exploitation), the calves gave the way to hopeless grief when they were separated from their mother.
The mother cow tried to catch up with them, longing to obtain reunion with her progeny.
The RSPCA said that the separation between cows and their young is a common procedure to guarantee low risk of disease transmission and sufficiency of feeding intake.
Considering the depressive effect brought out by the separation process, the cows need to be separated in an appropriate time frame.
Standard industry practice requires a separation to be done within twelve hours of birth.
