Why were cows painted with white stripes during ww2?

It was to do with the blackout, so the farmer would be able to see his cows more easily when it was blackout. This was because all the lights were off to prevent the Germans being able to pick bombing targets. Because they had no lights at night, the cows were painted white so the farmer could see his cows, but also so people in cars could see the cows when they were near a road, i think. Hope it helps!
