About This Item

Kuhglocken dienen in der landwirtschaftlichen Erwerbswirtschaft dazu, Herden von Rindern, Pferden, Eseln, Ziegen und Schafen, Kamelen, Rentieren, Lamas und selbst Elefanten zusammenzuhalten. Sie werden vom Leittier um den Hals getragen und es ist der Brauch, dass ältere Tiere größere Schellen umgehängt bekommen.

Durch die Bewegung der Tiere, vor allem beim Äsen, bimmelt die Glocke, was allen anderen Tieren der Herde eine Orientierung ist. In losen Tierverbänden erhalten alle eine Kuhglocke, damit sich Verirrte leichter wiederfinden lassen.

A cow bell or cowbell is a bell worn by freely roaming animals made to scare off any predators. Although they are typically referred to as "cow bells" due to their extensive use with cattle, the bells are used on a wide variety of animals.

So back to the lower 48. Good luck on your quest.

What a great find. Out exploring Coos Bay at the Veterans Memorial. So glad you chained down your cache. I’m sure someone would think it was nice for their own stash. Retrieved DXCPX6 travel bug Cow Bell. Will relocate to a far away place. Looks like it already has traveled the world. Thanks for the adventure.
