While cows in Nigeria are trekking all over the country in search of greener pastures, cows in Russia are living the champagne life
Farmers in Russia have been experimenting with virtual reality goggles as a tool to relax cows and increasing milk production.
According to a press release from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food in the Moscow region, sets of virtual reality goggles, modified for the shape of cow heads and displaying a "unique summer field simulation program," were placed on cows.
So far, it's unclear if the glasses have helped milk production -- further study will be needed for that. But a first did reveal a decrease in anxiety and an increase in the emotional mood of the herd, the release said.
