Too close for comfort?

When you go hiking here in Switzerland you can usually count on coming in close contact with several cows. I am always a little afraid of them, especially since we usually have baby and dog in tow! We have experienced so far that the females are ok and will let you walk by and the males will chase you at times.... Scaring me half to death. We try our best to avoid the males!
One other animal that John came across when hiking with a friend up Mt Pilatus was a mountain goat! They were pretty close to them when hiking and check out the size of their horns... I am confident I would have been scared.
At the top of Pilatus they had a chance to relax and listen to some Alphorn music before hiking back down.
