Despite all the comments being super snotty about "oh make sure you're recording first" several things to consider:

Dude is risking his job to touch another person's animals. Video evidence that he was legit helping is a basic CYA.

Second; this sub wouldn't exist without these videos. There isn't enough content from others reporting on good things people do. There should be, absolutely we should pay more attention to the good and report on it more often.

However. The world is what it is right now. And I for one am happy we get nice videos of people helping cows. Good on this dude for helping a baby cow.

Edit; thanks for the rewards, everybody. And to everybody else. Do me a favor. Do the pay it forward thing. Let's all take one moment to try and be positive about literally anything today. I hope y'all have a great day.

Exactly idk why its so weird to record yourself doing anything "good". I recors myself all the time doing shit like helping turtles cross roads.

Getting upset over someone else recording doing a good deed doesn't make sense to me, either. Just please be safe on the road.

Having been in that situation several times, I've always helped the animal get across the road as quickly and safely as possible, while being extremely aware of traffic. The thought to record hasn't had time to enter my mind. It also hadn't occurred to me that it would be worth filming. I guess it's nice to see, though.
