With garbage and food spilling out either on the road or dustbins in plastic bags, cows end up eating food leftovers along with the plastic. Over time, a huge amount of plastic accumulates inside their stomachs, hard like cement.India Today: India's toxic milk and plastic cows
The suction machines tend to take more milk out of the cows than what they would yield naturally. And they are often kept on even when udders have become dry, causing acute pain.
Most cows are unlawfully injected with hormone oxytocin to make them give more milk. Oxytocin keeps their bodies in perpetual condition of labour, with repeated uterine contractions, destroying their reproductive systems and making them bone thin and eventually sterile.
