An Austrian farmer was recently sued by Animal Rights activists because he spray-painted „buy bacon here“ on his cows.

And indeed, under Austrian animal rights protection laws, cows are protected from being abused as living commercial billboards: it is not allowed to write words on their fur or skin or colour them commercially.

I voted “yes”, but I hold said stance regardless of whether or not the cow will be subsequently killed.

On-cow bill-boards...I guess, seems pretty trashy.

I much prefer billboards made by the cows themselves... Wink

Gonna be honest, a lot of things went through my mind when I saw that an Austrian was asking if it was ok to "use cows"
