cow bells
Herd tracking noisemakers
Cow bells are hollow metal bells hung around the necks of grazing cattle so farmers can locate them by sound.
The distinctive clanking tone has made cow bells popular in folk music and as percussion instruments.
At sporting events, fans shake cow bells as noisemakers to show support: The stadium erupted with cow bells after the touchdown.
