Cows really can predict the rain. Scientists prove they are more likely to lie down when the weather is cold
The old wives’ tale that cows lie down when it is about to rain may not be so far fetched after all, according to a new study by scientists.
For researchers have discovered that cows stand up for longer periods when it is hot, proving there is a definite link between their behaviour and the weather.
They also suggest that cows lie down when it is colder, which is often what happens to the weather just before it rains.
