When she was 11 years old, Hannah Simpson was disappointed to hear from her parents that she will not get a horse - because horses are too expensive.

So the farm girl from New Zealand decided to move on to the next best thing - a cow.

Today, 18-year-old Hannah and her 7-year-old cow Lilac have become best friends and are also the best show on the farm.

I like this

Here's a video of Lilac jumping, not the best but it'll do. #lovinglife #cowgirl #cowriding #nzfarming #farmgirl #cows #brownswiss #summerfun #outdoors #fun #riding #nz #ruralnz #nzfarmer #fedphoto #431am #dairynz #countrygirl #farmersweeklycomp #lifeofafarmer #dairyfarming #southland #farmlifeisthebest

"Lilac was 6 months old and I was just a midget", Hannah said. "My brother said that I wouldn't dare jump on her, but she seemed to be okay with that, so we just kept going".

One of Lilacs slightly rare speedy moments? #lovinglife #cowgirl #cowriding #nzfarming #canteringcow #farmgirl #cows #brownswiss #summerfun #outdoors #fun #riding #nz #ruralnz #nzfarmer #431am #dairynz #lifeofafarmer #dairyfarming #southland #farmlifeisthebest

"I've always loved jumping, and I've always wanted to jump with horses", Simpson said. "And Lilac always jumped and ran away from the barn when she was young so I think she loves it too. I started with small skips over logs and it's just getting bigger and bigger".

Simpson tried to ride other cows but unsuccessfully. Lilac, she says, is obviously special.
