I've been butted by a ram. That hurt more than I'd have imagined. I've been kicked by a horse many times and that hurts about as much as you'd expect. Actually possibly a bit more.
When I was a child our garden backed onto a farm and a friend lived in the farmhouse so the shortcut to his house was across one of his dad's fields in which there were often cattle. My dog was always trotting along with me and we never had any bother. The thing about standing like a scarecrow facing them is what I was always told. Seems to work.
