Moo North: Cows Sense Earth's Magnetism

A new study finds cows and deer tend to face either magnetic north or south when grazing or resting.
This held true regardless of where the sun was, or how the wind blew. This has come as a surprise
even to those who spend their days with bovines. The discovery was made by a team from a German
University who used Google Earth to look at cows and deer all around the world.
