I think you have greatly underestimated how heavily into the "find out" spectrum cows are in the "fuck around" context.
Would I be able to kill it without being injured? Of course not. Would I be able to kill it without being killed? I think so.
Barehands? I'd find it difficult to believe if anyone could manage that. You'd have to choke the thing out which means holding on as it bucks around. Even professional cowboys have trouble doing that and they don't have to focus on choking the cow.
Maybe if you could sneak up on it while it's sleeping and could use a rock or something. Doubt bare hands though.
Fingers into the eye sockets
I agree with above on underestimating what is effectively an economy car that can decide to hate you and is far better at being able to parallel park on top of your body if you're going in without a weapon.
I've never considered that cows pretty much just decide not to hate us Thanks for the fun insight into cow psychology
They can never know what we do to their peers
