Wait until you see what a Highland Belted Galloway looks like."Donny can then be seen walking up to the cow, who is shielding her calf.

He continued: "Hello girl, have you got a calf? Can we see him?"The guilty-looking cow then starts walking way with the calf following and hiding behind her.Donny the points to a separate fenced area on the farm and tells viewers: "If you look over there you will see a Belted Galloway - that's the culprit!
