Not A Job I'd Want

Bulls get simulated cows at farmers' fair

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Live "sex shows" of bulls mounting a simulated cow have become a big attraction at an agricultural exhibition taking place in New Zealand.

The fake 'cow' -- a small go-kart with natural cowhide on its roof -- was developed by Ambreed New Zealand Ltd. to collect semen from bulls more safely and efficiently and improve artificial breeding of cows.
As David Letterman said last night, it's good to see Ann Coulter get a job. This isn't so bad, although I marvel at the...purient interest...exhibited by New Zealanders.

I've always thought it was sheep that were supposed to be nervous down there...anyway, I digress:
The go-kart, driven by a human operator, draws close to a bull and adjusts to the proper height.[...]

Bull semen is commonly obtained using a rubber device known as an artificial vagina which is put in place manually by two handlers.
So there are two guys in this go-kart and what makes this really an ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! moment for me is, well, first off, wouldn't by definition a rubber vagina be artificial and second, what if it falls off?

I mean, it's one thing to get a facial from a porn star, but a bull????? Altho I hear it'll clear your acne right up!
