The funny video shows several cows continuously slipping down a snowy slope while trying to ascend a hill.

The clip showed the group of cattle navigating their way on the ice-covered road on a hill in the autonomous region of Guangxi, located in southern China on the border with Vietnam, on 22nd January.

But instead of reaching the top, the hulking creatures can be seen repeatedly losing their footing and tumbling down the frozen slope, puzzling their owner after he drove them down.

Eventually, they can be seen regaining their balance and moving away from the frozen surface, after stepping on a spot covered in snow.

The video became a massive hit on China’s version of TikTok, Douyin, reaching more than 18,000 likes and another 50,000 shares.

The farmer, identified as ‘liu’ on the platform, said: “The cattle are free-range and have been kept in the mountains. When it snows, they are driven back and locked up.”

Netizens, however, were unable to hold back their laughter in the video’s comment section.

Douyin user ‘Don’t eat onions and garlic’ said: “These southern cattle are so inexperienced.”

The user ‘ZW’ commented: “Will these cows break their bones since they’re too heavy?

And ‘fall in love with loneliness’ added: “Why are you letting them out here? What will they eat? There is no grass.”
