It was quite common for Jersey cows to be shot in VT back in the 70s and 80s. Many farmers either painted or tied hunter orange to their animals. I saw a picture of one which had "cow" painted on both sides. Some people just shouldn't be allowed to hunt.
The fools that shoot farm animals are the same idiots that shoot other hunters.
To say it was more than likely a hunter without any shred of evidence is only making the situation worse.
