I was looking through yesterday’s Hoboleaks update and noticed three new SKINs for the Bullhead, Orca and Rorqual called Nautgjipur Industrial. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/6/b/4/6b407dab1b15d1080f22cb2d66345b9f999ca83b.png) Five different lines. Every single one spells **M.O.O.** On the official EVE Discord, an event scheduled for today is simply called **MOO**. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/a/8/f/a8fd9b573edfba28f8a18546a1c39328a1180df7.jpeg) Someone pointed out that “naut” relates to cattle/bulls in Icelandic, which sent usfurther down the rabbit hole. Nautgjipur is extremely close to the Icelandic nautgripur, meaning cattle. At that point I went looking for what today’s MOO event actually was and… well. There is going to be **an actual cow in Iceland playing EVE Online.** **FC CapitalCowPilot** will be controlling a Rorqual using giant cow-proof buttons around her field and leading an open high-sec mining fleet. Apparently there will also be community goals during the stream which unlock reveals about the upcoming CoW major update. > **[You Can Play EVE Online With A Real Cow Tomorrow, Seriously](https://www.cgmagonline.com/news/eve-online-cow-for-real/)** > > Tomorrow, Fenris Creations is putting a real cow in charge of EVE Online and livestreaming the whole thing on Twitch. > **[Somehow A Cow Will Be Playing EVE Online Starting Tomorrow, And It'll Be...](https://www.mmorpg.com/news/somehow-a-cow-will-be-playing-eve-online-starting-tomorrow-and-itll-be-livestreamed-2000138835)** > > Somehow, some way, EVE Online will be piloted by a cow tomorrow, and the team at Fenris is livestreaming it for your viewing pleasure. ---

So they are gonna force an animal to perform tricks for our pleasure. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/4/c/8/4c840b9e8af34a40e04ade472b5919850ce8fe29.gif) I honestly didnt think ccp could go any lower ---

I’ll be disappointed if the cow does not get an initiate-self-destruct-sequence button to play self-destruct chicken with while they mine. ---

**Really F\*CCP? Do you have ANY decency left?** **Torturing innocent animals by forcing them to mine rocks?** **SHAME!** **Whoever was the genius to think this is funny/acceptable in 2026 should be sent to the farm to take cere of the animals to learn better.** **Thank you for your attention to this matter!** ---
