Arkansas Cow Has 4th Set of Triplets

[Sequoia]

For the fourth time, an Arkansas cow has given birth to triplets and it's the ninth time she has given birth to more than one calf at a time. The Charolais-mix cow named Faith has given birth to 22 calves in nine pregnancies each of them multiples.

"Our vet says she belongs in the Guinness Book of World Records," owner Jenny Williams said. "She's amazing." Veterinarian Dr. G.C. Blair confirmed the 10-year-old's amazing fertility.

According to researchers at Oklahoma State University, beef cattle have triplets in 1 out of about 105,000 pregnancies, and have twins in 1 out of about 250.

Faith gave birth to her latest set on Friday. Of her previous 18, 15 grew to maturity three died after birth, including one Friday, and one was carried off by a bear.
