For what it is worth, their burps produce way more methane than their farts due to enteric fermentation. (Source: NASA Climate Site FAQ 33). Either way, they are still churning the stuff out in massive amounts.
Must of been the factory farmed cows that brought us out of the ice age 18,000 years ago with global warming….oh, wait the lack of factory farming then would discredit the man made global warming theory…oops.
The problem with methane estimates is that they’re just that: estimates. No one from the EPA, or any other organization for that matter, is standing out in a pasture measuring how much gas comes out of each individual cow.

Satchel’s face last panel, funny as is the first panel, but I always thought silent but deadly was something else!

“Killing the planet like a Chinese toy factory!” Again, the best line isn’t even in the last panel!

Most of the cow’s methane comes from the fermentation of their cud, they belch it out.

That’s so crazy it just might work!

now they know the bulk of the methane is actually from their burps!
