20 cows are grazing a field when suddenly a lightning bolt kills all but 12 of them How many are left?
The proper answer to this question would be nine. However, in reality, when a bolt of lightning hits them, they wouldn't just stand around acting dumb, they'd take off running for their lives, leaving ZERO cattle standing.

Why was lightning a threat for the cattle?
Cattle by nature are skittish animals. Lightning can cause cattle to become startled and bolt. In the days of the open range this was problematic on a number of levels. First, trying to stop stampeding cattle is inherently dangerous for both the animal and the cowboy. Second, it can scatter a herd across a large area causing lost time in retrieving them and it was quite easy to never recover all the animals. Today most cattle are fenced in but the west still has open grazing over large areas so it may still present a problem in those areas.Another Answer:Actually cattle in the old west stampeded from the sound of thunder, not lightning, though lightning wasn't completely not a factor in scaring cattle enough to scatter from where the cowboys were trying to keep them. There have been many reports of a number of cattle have been struck by lightning because they took shelter under tall trees, or if they were standing or laying on a tall hill where lightning would most likely could strike, especially if they're taking shelter from flood waters. Lightning strikes often kill cattle, and if they're standing or laying close together, will spread out among the other cattle killing them in addition to the one (or two) that got struck.
