‘AUSTRALIANS can love their animals and livestock too much.

The organisors of the annual Tasmanian Agricultural Show say that things are getting out of hand. So they’ve issued a decree stating that all cattle breeders must stop altering their prize steers’ looks by way of cosmetic surgery.

‘We don’t want cows’ teats sealed or glued,’ says a spokesperson for the Tasmania Agricultural Show Council. ‘We don’t want people pumping cows’ stomachs up to expand the stomach. We don’t want any interference at all as far as the conformation of the animal is concerned. We want to put them in the show ring as they have bred them.”
