Does a cow still sleep lying down when its head is straight or do they only sleep when its turned in?
No. Cows are not built to sleep standing up like horses are. Because cows are heavy in the brisket and barrel area, holding all that weight with fat, muscle, four-chambered stomach and other organs, they choose to lay down to sleep instead of remaining standing. They do doze, however when they are standing up, but it is only a light doze, not a sleep.
