Cow Comes Running To Take A Selfie - Cute Videos

The word “selfie” isn’t a word known only to humans anymore. In fact, one farm animal enjoys having its picture taken so much that it runs when it is time for another selfie.

Thanks to the invention of social media, the iPhone and the Android, selfie photographs are now a thing in society. With relative ease, anyone can turn their phone’s camera on and instantly capture a picture of themselves and quickly upload it to Facebook or Twitter for all to see. 

For an extended period of time, a device to assist in taking these up-close, personal photos was all the rage. A few years ago, one couldn’t walk down the street without witnessing someone carrying a self-stick. Thankfully, sales of this odd and, frankly, ridiculous product seemed to have subsided considerably. But selfies are still as important as ever. 

One woman in Turkey has even managed to train a cow – Meltem – to pose for selfies with her. The animal even runs when called for selfie photograph time, according to the video posted on YouTube.

Serife Yilmaz, a college student, works on her family’s farm. She cleans and cares for the animals, such as their cows, which includes Meltem. While caring for the animals, the young woman has managed to train Meltem to take pictures with her.

In the video, Serife says she got the idea to train Meltem to take pictures with her from social media, specifically Instagram. She watched a video of a golden retriever who would pose for selfies with its owner.

The golden retriever, Serife said, would place its head on its owner's shoulder. Her family’s cows, Serife thought, do something similar, so she filmed the video. Serife’s video has her calling out to Meltem, telling the animal, “Let’s take a selfie together.” The cow wastes no time after being called, sprinting over, ready for picture time. 

Serife’s precious photos with her bovine friend are “udder”ly amazing!
