Holy Cow!

As many as 400 Cambodian pilgrims a day are flocking to the northern
village of Phum Trapeang Chum to be licked by a mystical cow that was born
in a sacred commune, according to a July Agence France-Presse report. Word
got out after the wife of the cow's owner said she was cured of a chronic
illness, and other success stories followed, and now the owner is charging
the equivalent of about 13 U.S. cents for four licks. But, warned the owner,
"the cow won't lick people who won't put in their money." [Animal
