Not football related but what a strange world.. Ninety flatulent cows start fire at dairy farm in Germany.. please log in to view this image Methane gas build-up and a static charge created an explosion in a cow shed. The methane gas released by 90 flatulent cows caused an explosion in a farm shed in Germany, damaging the roof and injuring one of the animals, local police said. In a statement, the force said high levels of the methane gas had built up within the structure in the central German town of Rasdorf on Monday thanks to animals belches and flatulence, before âa static electric charge caused the gas to explode with flashes of flames." The subsequent blast damaged the roof of the cow shed, Reuters reported. Emergency services who attended the scene took gas readings to check for any potential further blasts. One of the cows was injured and had to be treated for burns it sustained during the incident, a police spokesman added. The animals can emit up to 500 litres of the greenhouse gas methane each every day through belching and flatulence. Cows also release large amounts of ammonia. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...rt-fire-at-dairy-farm-in-germany-9089801.html
imagine 500 litres as something = volumn of 100 petrol cans, 1000 bottles of beer ( OSH), over 1500 tins of Cola, imagine what a massive herbivore dinosaur would have produced and they do pee a lot, over 30 litres a day
Seems like we have or are converting to them... although carthorses as opposed to race horses seem to be our ilk
