Can one of you techie types copy the TikTok video of Doris the cow refusing to get up for milking as I have no idea how to copy the link. It’s in today’s DT and is brilliant.
“ A dairy cow on the Isle of Wight has become an internet sensation for “pretending” to be asleep at milking time.
Doris, who is part of a herd of 200 cows, has amassed 1.5 million views on social media and was even featured on a US news programme.
The TikTok video shows farmhand John Brodie trying to coax the now famous Friesian outside on a cold March morning, but she refuses to stand up, instead resting her head on the ground.
Mr Brodie says the footage, which he filmed at Reads Farm near Newport, demonstrated how the bovine was “more person than cow”.
In the video, John can be heard saying: “Everyone’s out getting ready milking, except for Doris.
“Doris. Come on. I can see your ears moving.”
