The say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but that is absolutely NOT the case for 18-year-old Hannah Simpson.

Hannah always wanted a pony, and when her parents refused to get her one, her brother suggested she start riding a cow. (yep, we're serious!)

Seven years ago, Hannah started riding Lilac, who was a calf on her family farm at the time. 

Fast forward to 2017, and Lilac has become somewhat of a jumping pro… and we are obsessed.

Hannah posts videos of her and her cow bff on Instagram, where they can be seen jumping over walls and tree trunks. 

The duo also go for rides on the beach, and go galloping in fields… and it's all pretty epic! 

 

All of a sudden, we really want a pet cow… anyone else?

What do you do when your delivery truck full of red Skittles gets flooded, and the sweets are poured out all over the street? A pretty sticky situation – but this one takes a weird turn.

The candy wasn't going to a shop, or to a factory to be packaged, like most of us would think (also; why were there only red Skittles?). Instead, they were going to some cows.

We're legit not joking.

The County Sheriff's Office in Wisconsin, in the US, has reported that the sweets "were intended to be feed for cattle."

And apparently, this has been going on for years! Bakeries and sweet companies sell their rejected candy as animal feed, which is a source of "cheap carbs", a former farmer told WBAY.

The cost of corn has been rising over the years, and mixing candy into the cows' food is now common practice.

"When you talk about feeding candy, it's something that can help supplement a small portion of the diet. Cows need carbohydrates as well. They need sugar. It provides energy and calories for them," said Liz Binversie, an agriculture expert.

You learn something new everyday, huh?
