Do Cattle, or have cattle ever eaten other cattle?

This is a bible question I like to ask - here is the quotation Genesis 41:20 "And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:"

    T'was just a dream, anything can happen in a dream.

    When two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing by the Nile, 2 when out of the river there came up seven cows, sleek and fat, and they grazed among the reeds. 3 After them, seven other cows, ugly and gaunt, came up out of the Nile and stood beside those on the riverbank. 4 And the cows that were ugly and gaunt ate up the seven sleek, fat cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.

    I am well-acquainted with this passage and Joseph's interpretation of it. However, I am unaware of any instances of cannibalism among cattle in particular.

    Are you really KJV only? I'm a big fan of the NASB and ESV, since I don't know Greek or Hebrew very well.

    Cows are vegetarians. Much like the quote from Jurassic Park: "They're veggiesaurs, Lex! Veggiesaurs!"
