Cows

En el condado de Tulare encontramos muchas lecherias , algunos de estos ranchos dan casa para vivir a las personas que trabajan ahí. Es una manera de tener al trabajador cerca ya que las vacas necesitan el cuidado constante porque ellas se ordeñan de día y de noche.

In Tulare County there are many dairies. Some dairies require their workers to live in houses on the dairy. It is a way to have workers close to the work, because each cow needs much attention. The cows are milked day and night, usually on a schedule of every eight hours.
