DES MOINES, Iowa — A father captured a picture of his son snuggled up with their cow, and, of course, internet users found it prize-worthy.
Mitchell Miner, 15, of Iowa, and his cow, Audri, had a long day at the Iowa State Fair after competing in the youth cattle show Sunday. So, the best friends decided to take a nap.
The picture on Facebook had over 26,000 likes and 3,096 shares as of Wednesday morning; it’s since been taken down or its privacy settings have been changed.
"I was asleep. I think she was, too," Miner told the Des Moines Register on Monday.
While the duo didn’t win the cattle show, they did win the internet’s heart.
