[IN THE NEWS] Chilli the Giant Cow

Holy Heffer Batman! No, that picture has not been photoshopped, that's a 6 foot tall cow.

LUKE SALKELD writes in an article for the Daily Mail:
"The black and white Friesian bullock weighs well over a ton and at the same height as a small elephant, casts a shadow over his cattle companions who are about 5ft.

The heifer, who is almost as high as he is long, lives at the Ferne Animal Sanctuary in Chard, Somerset, after he was left on their doorstep aged just six-days-old.
Nine years on, Chilli has kept on growing, and staff believe the giant will smash a record for Britain's tallest ever cow."
Imagine this guy as a Purebreed line of cattle in the Plains of the Free Cattle. No wonder they would be able to maintain their independence.

OK, what would the Purebreed stats be? :)

Looking at the Cattle in the book (2nd Edition) I would almost say that you could use the Angus with a base size level of 18. If I find time I'll write something up. I need to finish the Garden of Evil adventure first.
