A GIANT cow which stands more than 6ft 4ins tall and weighs the same as a family hatchback is so big it's been saved from the chop.

Knickers, a seven-year-old Holstein Friesian, is more than twice the size of the rest of the herd in Myalup, Western Australia.



The bovine behemoth stands head and shoulders above other farm beasts and weighs in at an incredible 1.4 tonnes (3,083lbs).

Author is confused.  Uses cow in the title but claims it is a steer.  Then goes on to explain a steer is a castrated bull.

Then watch the video and see this "steer" has udders and no penis.

Out west any sort of beef critter is a 'cow' not regulated to she-stuff unless you get technical. As for the media dude he's lucky he can tell a cow from a dalmatian. Either way HOLY COW!!!

A massive Australian cow named Knickers has been spared the slaughterhouse and the dinner table thanks to its sheer size.

The behemoth bovine hails from a farm in the town of Myalup in Western Australia and was recently saved from the barbecue because of its size, standing nearly two metres tall and weighing more than a car.

“He was too big to go into the export plant’s chain,” Geoff Pearson, the steer’s owner, told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). “We have a high turnover of cattle, and he was lucky enough to stay behind.”

My Bull is a pretty good jumper when he is motivated.  I watched him jump fences that were taller than his head.  No way I would do that if my testicles hung to my knees like his do.

The anatomy is a bit confusing.  Maybe they do it different in Australia?

Congrats,  Freya!

From an owner stand point...I bet they wish he was a bull!  Think of all the hamburgers that could come from his offspring.
