Greetings to everyone on this noble platform. It is a thing of joy to participate in this wonderful contest today. The engagement challenge contest for week 3 has just started and I'm happy to be part of it. Today I will be presenting my entry as regards the topic under review. Read through and learn something little.
The topic of discussion today is what different animals can teach humans. Without any iota of doubt, we all are aware that animals normally teaches human a lot of things like being loyal, obedient, caring etc. We have seen different animals with this character listed above and more and sometimes we tend to admire their behaviour as well.
Over the years, I have closely monitored cows as an animal. Here in Nigeria, we have nomadic farmers who we call the Fulani people. These people are known for their activities of taking care of cattle, goats and cows. I have also been privileged to communicate with this set of people at one time or the other. I notice the love they have for their cattle cannot be compared with any other.
Out of curiosity, I decided to find out the reasons why these people value their cows so much even more than human life because they can kill a human for the sake of their cattle. In my little finding, I discovered that cattle are one of the most obedient animals here in my country. If a Fulani man keeps his cattle in a particular grazing location for 3 days, he will come back and meet all of them still within the area.
None of them will leave the axis until their owner comes. Another thing I notice about the cattle is that they know their master. I have been opportune to see 3 groups of Fulani persons each with his cattle and then they came together and when they are parting ways, all of them followed their master. I was so amazed and I said to myself, so these animals know each other too.
From this, you will agree with me that the lessons that humans can learn from the animals here include obeying and also acknowledging and knowing where we all come from. My experience with these cattle has taught me to be more obedient and also give regard to those who cater for all my needs like my parents and all others in authority.
Conclusion
Every animal on this planet earth has one thing or the other to teach us if we carefully pay attention to them. The reason why we don't tend to learn anything from them most times is that we are always busy and not giving them attention. I call on us to try and pay attention to the animals around us and allow them to teach us some life principles. I want to invite @ruthjoe, @chiabertrand and @preshymukel to please join the contest.
Cows are indeed very obedient animals and they live in cattle and follow their masters. The simple life and giving nature of cows teach us how to be a giver and not just a taker because giving something is the best feeling.

Truly we need to pay attention more to the expressions and behaviours of animals, the know a lot. Animals are knowledgeable and know what happens around them. They know their owners so well, and i talk in regards to many other animals as well.
Thank you so much for sharing with us.

It is incredible in terms of obedience and cattle, so much so that if its owner leaves, when he returns even the cattle will remain in the same place.
A great lesson that we humans must learn from these animals. To be loyal, obedient and grateful.

Ciertamente amigo debemos prestarle más atención a los animales y aprender lo que nos quieren enseñar ya que son aspecto de la vida que si deciframos seremos más humanos. Suerte

Over the years I have realised that Fulani’s do not joke with their animals. I come from Ghana and there are times where you see them chase their animals from the bush into the main land. Most times these animals what to escape but they do not allow that.
I’ve realised that their animals are their most priced assets and I don’t think there is anything anyone can say or bring in exchange for their animals unless they want to sell.
How we humans love animals who are obedient. Even though I won’t exchange human love for animals but I will love to have that. At times am even suprised at the respect these animals have for we humans considering their size. A cow can easily kill a human but they still obey their master.
This is wonderful.

Here in INDIA majority of population consider cow are sacred animal and cow vigilante do attack butchers for killing cows. Nomadic people too resort to fights with other people who harm their cattle.
Great going and good luck

Eso que nos cuenta es muy impresionante amigo @josantos.
Realmente no pensé que las vacas podían estar juntas y luego al separarse sus dueños, cada una seguiría al suyo, muy impresionante.
Un gusto ver su participación. Saludos.
