JG: That's what I also thought at the beginning, but I always wonder how gross we all are then. Since Hurray bring the matter of cow giving birth to calf, I can tell you guys my experience with that. I was about 5/6 years old and was visiting my maamaghar in a village. One day I was just enjoying the bucolic scenes then, to my surprise, my eyes caught a big Balloon in a field. I screamed and screamed to my Grandma of a big balloon coming out of the cow standing on the field. I was so surprised to see that humungous balloon like structure coming out of the cow's belly. My grandma grabbed me on my hand and took me inside the house. After few minutes, I canot help so I unlocked the door where I was, then went to the place where the cow were kept (goth, I think it is called, Gai ko Goth), and there goes a beautiful calf semi-wet, and the cow licking her baby. My second hand curiosity now is- is the human same??? LOL... By the way, not to mention here- I was in a complete quandary while studying the earthworm anatomy and the whole reproduction section in my I.Sc class. Is not that quite fascinating. Well, still waiting for some curiosities............ HD
