Support -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:23, 12 January 2024 (UTC)- Support Nice one :) --Kritzolina (talk) 07:42, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Oppose An unfortunate scene, I would have liked another type of composition instead of the animal sucking itself --Wilfredor (talk) 11:27, 12 January 2024 (UTC)- Info Scratching or licking. After sucking mother's milk. The way of contorting oneself is impressive I find -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:45, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- IMHO and as someone who grew up raising these animals, this scene is not interesting. Or in his inability to obtain the necessary milk he seeks nourishment from his own body. I find this composition unpleasant Wilfredor (talk) 13:29, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Here they manage remarkably well to feed themselves to satiation. As for the idea of sucking yourself, that's just rubbish. It might make people laugh, no doubt, I suppose? In reality it is a natural gesture similar to that of this FP -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:38, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- It is not nonsense, it is an incorrect gesture due to moral canons among humans for some cultures. But among animals it is totally normal to suck themselves Wilfredor (talk) 16:20, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Could you please cut it out here? This discussion is offensive to some people, due to what you call moral canons and the language you use. It is also totally unneccessary. The calf is doing something typical for calves, that is all we need to judge the image. Kritzolina (talk) 16:27, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, like dogs, cats, and so many animals, cattle lick and scratch themselves. It's a natural behavior. Showing this is educational in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:51, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose I was surprised the other one was promoted and cannot see why we need two. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:43, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose per Charles, although I would have voted for the other one. I have no idea what this debate is that's going on above, I don't see what's objectionable about this picture, it's totally normal animal behaviour. But having seen the other FP it's just so much better. The light is nicer and the background is less cluttered. No need for both to be FP IMO Cmao20 (talk) 19:09, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose per others --Νικόλαος Κυριακάκης (talk) 07:14, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:15, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
