Cows

Do cows think about what they do? Periodically, you drive by a pasture, and you see cows in the field. Some are in groups, but there are always some loner cows. Are these cows standing solo by choice? Did the get lost on the way up the hill? Maybe there was a special blade of grass that the others missed. Maybe the loner cow was shunned by the larger group. Still, you wonder what went through the cow's mind. It's not as if standing alone was an instinct reaction or some result of stimulus-muscle reaction. The cow had to do some thinking. To what end...?

Ive often wondered this my self.
I suppose if the cow found a way to alter its consiousness (accidently ate the right kind of mushrooms), evidence of a thinking creature within the cow would be more apperent.
I reccomend we taint the local cow water supply with LSD and find out.
