It was Mr. Floppy....
Hot pepper juice on the cables.
Habanero if you can find some.
you can't help it that you're the cool place to hang out.
Just a thought John human compose is a good fertilizer for none eatable plants .I think it would be a wise thing not to use it on eatable plant.What do you think?
Could you run the cable through some PVC schedule 40 so the cows can't get to it?

PVC pipe is dessert for them. They like it better than cable.
LOL at 2 Dogs...I can just see Mr Floppy lookin' at the PVC and thinkin' "Hot DOG!" John's got his work cut out for him... but HEY, what's new?

I have lots of experience with cows, mules. rodents and PVC.
Another trick is to wrap hardware cloth around the cable or PVC.
I say run any exposed cable through conduit if possible, and bury the conduit where practical. That, and the pepper spray! Maybe they get a charge out of the electrical current, and it makes them strangely happy. Who knows...
