All the initial work on this tree was done by a series of cows. It is a Chinese elm, japanese pot, not sure of breed of cow.
Other than someone else digging it up and me buying it and putting it into a pot; not a lot of human work has been done on this tree.
Yummidori, Chewadori, Cowadori, Bulligerentadori.

I would say a resounding yes
They are terrible at re potting though

Imagine what they could do if they had hands! Lovely gentle animals.

I think the question could also be reversed, do Bonsai make Cows?

Sorry to throw a spanner in the works , but the paddock this tree came from usually has sheep in it ! That would make it an ovineadori . Cheers Graham

Probably wrong... but wasn't that English Elm raft(?) in the National collection originally collected from a cow paddock?
