cow in the shade

cow in shade
Is it good for dairy and beef cattle to have shade? Farmers actually debate this question.

thermo
The farmers are looking at the bottom line, a totally anthropocentric point of view. Does a hot cow gain as much weight/produce as much milk as a cool cow?

Lets chain some farmers in the full sun, see if that helps them answer the question.

heron
Green herons are one of the few species of animal known to use tools. In particular, they commonly use bread crusts, insects, or other items as bait. The bait is dropped onto the surface of a body of water in order to lure fish. When a fish takes the bait, the green heron will then grab and eat the fish.–Wikipedia
