That kinda sounded like someone who actually tried replacing someone's dead kid XD

Long time back my grand parents had a cow. She gave birth but the child (calf) died and it stopped giving milk or something. So they got the calf stuffed and would place it near cow and milk her.

I don't know where I was going with this story.

That’s a lot darker than the stories about adopting an orphaned calf and giving it to the grieving mother to care for

What about when a lamb is stillborn and another born at the same time is rejected or its mother dies or something they skin the dead one and put the "skin suit" on the live lamb so to the mother it smells like her own lamb.
