Here you can see cows from the viewpoints of other cows. You can also see what cows see.

Some of the cows on this ranch have been given their very own video cameras. With some ingenious harnessing, these cows are decked out with video cameras that allow you to live "a day in a cow’s life" from the comfort of your computer chair.

You have cow cams to pick from: Cow1, Cow2 and Cow3. A lot of the footage is obviously going to be terrain, wildflowers and such, but the occasional glimpses of the other cows are very rewarding.

In the same area as the cow cams, you’ll see an image of a cow. This flips and underneath the image is the name of the cow you are looking at. What a fun way to meet all the stars of the herd!

Straight From the Cows Mouth is a great, fun and frolicky blog from the cow’s point of view. You can check out the archives for this, located just below the main area in the Blog Archive.

Visit the About Moo Tube section. Here you can learn about the harness and camera set up, as well as the "whys" behind the site. Next to the About Moo Tube link, you’ll find the Video Problems section. This will help you trouble shoot the site if you have video problems.
