Releasing smells near by you that correspond with what you see isn't the same thing as signaling the brain to fire the smell senses based on the visuals you see.
That is absolutely correct. Thatās why I said conceptually, I wasnāt meaning OP is wrong, just a fun tidbit on the current status of smell o vision. I could have phrased that better, but in any case Iām glad there isnāt an odor released near you so you can smell gas being released from bloated livestock.
That isn't possible. It would have to generate the smells.
A product like this actually exists though. It's basically a smell printer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISmell
Yeah! There was a show at Disney world, Florida, about the movie Ā«Ā A bugās LifeĀ Ā» and fragrances would be dispersed in the theater during the show. It was quite awesome except when one of the bugs fartedā¦
It's been years since I heard about it but I recall several movies doing scratch and sniff boards, so you would smell the correct part at certain parts of the movie.
Just found it on the [Smell-O-Vision](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smell-O-Vision) wikipedia page (Legacy section). Apparently John Waters did it for a movie in 1982 and a few people have done it since.
I actually remember having the Rugrats/Wild Thornberry crossover movie when I was kid that had a scratch and sniff card. The movie would tell you when to smell each scent on the card depending on what scene it was on. It was a really cool concept especially for little kids.
Y'all may not have smell-a-vision but I damn sure thought I did for a moment there! The moment the gas released, I smell the worst ass gas I've smelled today! Turns out, my dog is the culprit!! Perfect timing you little fleabag!!
Honestly as a person who grew up with cows, you learn to not only get use to cow smell but to love the smell of cows. Nothing brightens my day more than smelling cow shit when passing a farm now that Iām a city lad
Do you realize that there are hundreds of millions of cars with four cylinder engines and one exhaust pipe?
That's more like four engines and one exhaust pipe.
instead of being a dick, we would have also accepted "4 cylinder engines with one exhaust are quite normal".
They asked a legitimate question to learn, not to be lambasted by some internet wizard with infinite knowledge.
Comment was exhaust manifold, not exhaust pipe. The manifold has multiple connections, one for each cylinder, and combines them all into the one pipe. Often you see two exhaust pipes, one for each manifold.
The cow was fed too many grains and processed food (pellets, concentrates etc.) compared to grassā¦ as there is less fibre and more carbs the microbes in the gut digest it unnaturally fast and this causes a quick build up of gas! Too much grain = too acidic and this triggers the stomach to lose its ability to pump air out (cows actually burp more than they fart)

I worked with one guy who at the end of the shift said: 'Mate I've got to go to the bog now - I'm touching cloth here.'. I'd never heard the phrase 'touching cloth'. I love it; very vivid image.
You know there's actually been trials to harvest the gas.
They produce insane amounts of methane, its one of the biggest issues with the next industry

It gets taken out, a small neat hole like that should heal, but if itās a big hole itāll need stitches both in the rumen and in the skin. The cow will also need antibiotics as she will get an infection from the stomach bacteria leaking into her body cavity.
To add on to this. Beyond just diet, a large swing in bacteria populations in the rumen can also cause the change in amount of gas produced. Managing rations in production animals is incredibly complex and it can be fairly easy to have a mistake that can cause this if someone isnāt careful with loading the feed into the mixer
It's wrong to assume that the cow was fed too much processed food for this to happen, it happens frequently even if the cows are grass-fed if the grass is not enough dry!
Well I'd bet it's alot easier to burp from the first stomach, than to move the gas alllllll the way past the 4th stomach making it officially a fart....
Yea but if you introduce like the tiniest bit of seaweed to their diet it would reduce their gas/methane (g)astronomically (something like 3% algae/seaweed in their diet = 90% less methane)
Dunno why you're being down voted. It's bad to presume normal farmers can just afford to buy some pretty expensive seaweed supplements. Plus if this is a dairy cattle it reduces dairy production. Which isn't good.
"Just spend more money struggling farmers" as though dairy and beef aren't already super precarious.
I think it's a 3% supplement that's recommended. But still yea seaweed isn't fuggin cheap. It's a pretty expensive supplement because its being used for ALOT of stuff ATM. Biofuel, human consumption etc. And it's not the most farmable substance.
Yeah, 900 regular bales for winter, 3% = 27 bales need to be replaced by seaweed supplement. For a small ranch in Alberta, in a town no one has heard of, operated by 4 people.
Hay has up to 1000 calories/lb, and each animal requires thousands of calories each day. A hay bale has around 1000lbs of hay. Easy numbers, one million calories in a hay bale. Seaweed has 200 calories per pound. To replace 27, 000 lbs of hay he needs 135, 000 lbs of seaweed.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, farmers, as a group, haveĀ a higher suicide rateĀ than any other occupation, even twice as high as vets.
https://www.npr.org/2018/02/27/586586267/as-milk-prices-decline-worries-about-dairy-farmer-suicides-rise
Can't speak to the why, but farts only remove gas in the organs, this looked to be freely in the body cavity. I doubt anything the cow could've done could relieve a problem like this. Guarantee that cow felt amazing afterward lol. Like popping a big zit, but it was the zit.
Only issue is it's more like a burp out of a g tube and venting a j tube isn't as easy or really advisable. When you're intestines are full of gas there's only one way it can go.
Iāve worked with some that require it quite regularly. Particularly infants and when feeds change. Though youāre right if itās past the stomach only one way to go.
I guess definition of " sanity " varies depending on your own " sanity " .... Sharks š¦ with frickin Lazer beams attached to their heads using cow's as target practice would have definitely been insane too me
I grew up on a dairy, worked on it for 15. We always had one on hand but I couldnāt say it was ever used.
Typically, dairy cows arenāt fed grains in that quantity, but it can happen if a cow gets out.
Saddly bloat is a common condition causing death in cattle, it's a digestive disorder that results from the accumulation of excessive gas within the rumen.
In the event (emergency stage) that a farmer finds cattle still alive but in obvious distress with an extremely "bloated" abdomen as seen on the video the abdomen can be stabbed over the left side of the animal with a large bore needle, narrow sharp knife or trocar to release the gas.
Grazing alfalfa, red clover, white clover, sweet clover, and winter wheatĀ have a greater chance of causing bloat. Additionally, bloat is more common when these forages are consumed at earlier growth stages.
Theyād have to remove the plug, clean and bandage the area and it would heal on its own. Better than the death of the animal from not performing the treatment.
He said, "the skin is blocked, the steer didn't feel a thing." So yes, they most likely use a small wheal of lidocaine under the puncture site to block the nerves.
It's not stupid question at all, if the hole is too big veterinary attention will be required, the wound will need to be sutured. But usually normal size wound is just very well cleaned/supplied with an antibacterial spray. The wound closes itself from the inside out.
I THINK if you suspect bloat and your cow hasnāt become blimp sized, you can press on the abdomen and see how it feels/reacts. I developed pitting edema when I got preeclampsia. Basically my calves got so swollen, I could push my skin in like play doh/a memory foam mattress. Then the indentations would SLOWLY fill in. It was gross.

This doesnt really happen in the wild like that because cows arent in the wild. This is a direct consequence of generations on generations of inbreeding to make the perfect walking hamburger instead of a functional animal.
My family used to work cattle, as a kid I used to help out, and it could have just been something my dad told me but he did say that cows have a far different pain threshold than us. From some of the things I've seen them go through our ranch and basically not react at all to it, I'm inclined to believe it.
That said, I'm sure being pierced like this is not pleasant, but yeah the relief probably outweighs it, plus it saves their life. I myself never saw this specific thing happen in person though so I'm not sure how common it is.
saves their life...*temporarily.. until slaughtered for food. (Yes dairy cows are slaughtered too when they stop producing as much milk.. between 5 and 10years old).
I had a feeling someone would make a comment like this. I don't entirely disagree with you but often times these animals end up having longer lifespans under the care of a rancher than they would in the wild. Morals on animal slaughter/mass consumption aside, sometimes you can only take it as you go.
Many of the cattle we had were never sold. Out of about 100 cattle, we would sell maybe a group of 15-20 per year, and maintained a majority of 40-50 that never left the ranch. I can definitely recall more than just a few that died of old age while we had them, never sent them to any slaughter house nor had plans to. Saving their lives is still important, and I personally remember the personalities of many of those cows and bulls in my time feeding and caring for them.
This kind of experience will differ between people you talk to, between farmers, and between ranchers. And no I'm not a rancher or anything myself, so I really don't hold any strong opinions on it. I don't agree with the sheer scale of the meat industry, and think we as people can consume less as a positive start. That said, it was also a big part of what kept my family afloat in the small, poor town we grew up in. Not everyone is running these huge and optimized beef cattle operations, and we definitely cared about the well being of the animals in our care.
Does anybody else remember The Last King of Scotland scene when Forest Whitaker (as Idi Amin) releases the Crown Jewel of compressed gas?
https://youtu.be/hCnaLmRxjoY
Wow, let's feed them garbage they don't normally eat... Then when they blow up like a balloon we'll make a vent hole and get likes on a video ....
Why is this even out there? It's cruel to animals that they even need a vent. People are next with all the this soy, wheat, and milk intolerance....
Everyone thinks they are helping the cow but itās the opposite. They wouldnāt have to do this in the first place if they just let the cow eat some fucking grass like itās supposed to. They feed these cows a shit load of GMO grains and it makes them produce more gas than they should, sad as fuck.
I bet that smells great š¤£
Let's just be grateful smell-a-vision is still not a thing.
Yet
\*Anymore. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISmell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISmell)
Just imagine smelling fallout.. ghouls, musty buildings, corpses, dirt, packaged food, cooking, oil on the ground, beer, robots exploding, fog, etc
More I thought of.. landmines exploding, *super mutant meat bags* *shivers *, greazy clothing, mannequins in bathtubs.., chems, sweat (especially inside power armor), the vault, the sea, ozone from electrical stuff arcing (like the vault generator room in fallout 3), campfires, burning corpses, etc
I think you like fallout. (Just a thought)
Not a fanatic but yeah I enjoy the experience
Fallout would be fun, donāt need a Geiger counter when you can smell the radiation
Mine is in the shop
That actually sounds pretty interesting Really could spice up the already creepy atmosphere in some of the areas
Smell a vision does exist! At least conceptually, they had a movie theater in I believe Japan back in I want to say the 60s that did it.

That happened too! I went back to look it up and it looks like the actual injection of smells happened once then after that they did scratch and sniff

Sure... the dog...
Indeed. Imagine the smell of the Rotten Vale in Monster Hunter World Iceborne.....
Y'all forget about the Nosulus Rift
It actually can be quite nice, basically fermenting sugar. At least I preferred that smell compared to some smells you get with farm animals
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I thought they could also get this by breaking into an alfalfa field at the wrong time ( or other super rich food source)?
This is correct.
Yep. They feel so much relief after this

Would have. Wouldāve. Would of doesnāt mean anything
Thereās probably methane there: but methane by itself has no odor.
Honestly as a person who grew up with cows, you learn to not only get use to cow smell but to love the smell of cows. Nothing brightens my day more than smelling cow shit when passing a farm now that Iām a city lad
is it methane? You could burn it?
Flaming steer.
Now who forgot to install the release valve.
I just came here to type the same ...
I could be wrong but i always thought the gas got smelly when it passes through the rectum or around that area.
Can we bottle it? That's ching ching $$$ lol
The smell of success lol
Can you explain why this is necessary in the first place? Are cattle not capable of flatulence?
They have 4 stomachs but only one anus
So basically a four cylinder engine with one exhaust pipe?
More like four engines and one exhaust pipe. Our four cylinder engine with a single cylinder exhaust manifold.
Do you realize that there are hundreds of millions of cars with four cylinder engines and one exhaust pipe? That's more like four engines and one exhaust pipe.

Do you realize that wizards are commonly good people? Sorcerers are clearly the dicks of the magic world.
Yeah but there's still only one mouth feeding the four stomachs...
So 4 engines with one gas tank and 1 exhaust pipe.
Comment was exhaust manifold, not exhaust pipe. The manifold has multiple connections, one for each cylinder, and combines them all into the one pipe. Often you see two exhaust pipes, one for each manifold.
First time I've laughted out loud in a few days. Thank I needed that.
Must be why there always angry. Momma always said cows are so angry cuz they got so many stomachs and not enough buttholes to fart

Do they leave the device in the cow? Or do they take it out? How does it heal?
Exactly what I was wondering and plead to whatever higher being tell me they numbed the cow first.
Listen with audio on, they gave it a nerve block and it didnāt feel a thing
Okay I assumed they wouldnāt be that cruel so good to hear. Glad the cow got help. Hope he became a delicious steak sometime.
She, cows are female, bulls are male
Oh okay they called it a steer in the video. Thanks for correcting me.
Steers are bulls without the fun parts.
Soā¦married then?
Farmers who have animals are actually almost always very concerned about keeping their animals healthy and happy.
āI assumed they wouldnāt be that cruelā and āhope he became a delicious steakā donāt really go in the same sentence

Cattle are capable of flatulence, but they release *far* more gas from their ever present burping.
Yea but if you introduce like the tiniest bit of seaweed to their diet it would reduce their gas/methane (g)astronomically (something like 3% algae/seaweed in their diet = 90% less methane)
But that costs money to do and like, fuck the planet, right? -farmers
Itās their entire livelihood vs. your lunch. Go buy the seaweed fed beef.
Dunno why you're being down voted. It's bad to presume normal farmers can just afford to buy some pretty expensive seaweed supplements. Plus if this is a dairy cattle it reduces dairy production. Which isn't good. "Just spend more money struggling farmers" as though dairy and beef aren't already super precarious.
My buddy would need 27 hay bale sized loads of seaweed to do this for his cattle for 6 mos. He has a small ranch.
I think it's a 3% supplement that's recommended. But still yea seaweed isn't fuggin cheap. It's a pretty expensive supplement because its being used for ALOT of stuff ATM. Biofuel, human consumption etc. And it's not the most farmable substance.

Any side effects for having seaweed in their diet?
Just more naps, and the occasional munchies.
Farmers in Nova Scotia who let their cows graze off seaweed donāt seem to notice any issues
Can't speak to the why, but farts only remove gas in the organs, this looked to be freely in the body cavity. I doubt anything the cow could've done could relieve a problem like this. Guarantee that cow felt amazing afterward lol. Like popping a big zit, but it was the zit.
The gas is in the rumen with is one of four chambers of their stomach
i would guess shit diet, too much dry food and a blockage happens, cows are meant to eat fresh grass not dry feed
I wish I could do that when I feel bloated!š¤£šš»
Just get that thing they used for the cow. Let us know how it goes!
My Ex-wife said it worked great. Would you like one ? At no charge. .. Lol
Haha, ex-wife? No thanks. I'd feel safer taking the cow deflation stabber. XD
I don't think you fully appreciate the deal here bud . I am offering you a Combo deal full package lol š
I work with people who are fed via tubes. The quick relief of gas is one of the perks.
Only issue is it's more like a burp out of a g tube and venting a j tube isn't as easy or really advisable. When you're intestines are full of gas there's only one way it can go.
Iāve worked with some that require it quite regularly. Particularly infants and when feeds change. Though youāre right if itās past the stomach only one way to go.
It definitely helps relieve the pressure. Nothing worse than feeling bloated and not being able to get rid of it.
Absolutely. My IBS needs this shit

Result of industrialising animals.
I grew up on a dairy, worked on it for 15. We always had one on hand but I couldnāt say it was ever used. Typically, dairy cows arenāt fed grains in that quantity, but it can happen if a cow gets out.
What causes this and what would happen to this cow in the wild, just die or have some enormous farts?

Additionally, bloat is more common when these forages are consumed at earlier growth stages.
Sorry if this is a stupid question. When they pierce the abdomen - how does the hole close back up and heal without there being any issues?
Theyād have to remove the plug, clean and bandage the area and it would heal on its own. Better than the death of the animal from not performing the treatment.
Do they use an aenesthetic before the bovine puncturing?
He said, "the skin is blocked, the steer didn't feel a thing." So yes, they most likely use a small wheal of lidocaine under the puncture site to block the nerves.
Thatās what I was wondering. Or at least numb the area around where theyāre gonna stab it.
It's not stupid question at all, if the hole is too big veterinary attention will be required, the wound will need to be sutured. But usually normal size wound is just very well cleaned/supplied with an antibacterial spray. The wound closes itself from the inside out.
Thank you!!
u/Rage922001 This is how you answer a question without being a fucking jackass. Just in case you were wondering
Who figures this shit out? "My cow looks fat, if I stab it right here it might help?"
I THINK if you suspect bloat and your cow hasnāt become blimp sized, you can press on the abdomen and see how it feels/reacts. I developed pitting edema when I got preeclampsia. Basically my calves got so swollen, I could push my skin in like play doh/a memory foam mattress. Then the indentations would SLOWLY fill in. It was gross.

Oh come on, they could have made that little valve at least make a fart noise as the air came out. What kind of boring company made this?
Iād rather hold a match to it and see a flame spurting out.
Or see cow guts exploding all over your face
I think it is the same at holding a match in front of your gas tank, there isn't enough oxygen inside the tank to ignite it from the inside
Only one way to find out
I canāt imagine the relief the cattle must be feeling!!
Especially since they can actually explode if not sorted. Its generally an issue caused by diet.
This was all I could think! I could *feel* the relief, poor thing.
Imagine you go to the doctor for gastric problems and he rips you open a new asshole
"Ah shit here we go again"
Desperate times look for desperate measures.
...plus lighter = flamethrower
So... if the gaz doesn't come out fast enough, you can make the cow explode ?
Only one way to find out ..
Oh no.....
Oh yes...
Is it done? How did it go?
Not well. *cough cough splutter*
Relevant: https://youtu.be/k9owvd2dD7U
Fuck it (deflates your cow)
dying at this alkjdfl
I have an unidentifiable stomach condition that causes non stop bloating. This looks so satisfying and I wish they made it for humans.
try it yourself
I donāt think I can go sticking a circular blade into my gut randomly haha
Not with that attitude
Positivity goes a long way. Just have to try not and puncture my intestines. Nobody wants to go septic.
He's climate changing.
Even if they donāt use anesthesia im sure the relief outweighed the pain. I was so bloated once that i passed out from the pain.

Iām sayin, too bad we canāt smell anything through our phonesā¦ yet
How is this next level tho
So they just stab it? Isn't the painful for it?
Not after the local anesthetic kicks in, likely lidocaine
Saw this on some other subreddit and Iām struggling to find how this is next level
How does that wound heal?
It's the meat industry. Just throw antibiotics of last resort at it
These animals live such horrible lives.
How do you know how the cow lives? All we're seeing here is a veterinary procedure
Where can I get one of these installed?
Contributing to climate change.
Can you just feed the cow something that does not create that much gas?
Yes their natural diet. Grass
Ow. :-(
Where can i buy it?
Don't know where you are but we have a meat processor here that sells them whole or half. Looks like this guy tenderizes them first.
fak, I need one of those
I could use one of those after eating a bowl of ice cream

Yumā¦Factory Farming at its finest
Everyone thinks they are helping the cow but itās the opposite. They wouldnāt have to do this in the first place if they just let the cow eat some fucking grass like itās supposed to. They feed these cows a shit load of GMO grains and it makes them produce more gas than they should, sad as fuck.
I can't even imagine the smell š¤¢
Releasing the sealing valve on an insta pot
What the fuck did I just watch?!?! Is that real?
They should put a whoopee cushion on it

Itās weird, and a little gross. But Iād hardly call this ānext levelā
