She looks to be in great shape to have been carrying 240+ pounds of calf! Talk about taking a load off!

The article didn't say how much help she needed delivering all those calves.

Had a cow in the area where I used to live give birth to live quads several years ago... All Angus crossed mutts. All lived, she had zero help giving birth. So it happens!
