Cow is a ruminant. Which means it almost swallows the food and brings it back to mouth when it gets the free time and chews it again before sending it back to the stomach. And the stomach has four chambers. When a cow eats plastic, it gets into the stomach and remains there most of the times. Over a period of time, the plastic gets accumulated and can lead to blockage of the stomach.

A blocked stomach in a cow is a very dangerous thing. The cows stomach contains bacteria which helps it to digest the food and the bacteria produces a lot of gas. The movement of the stomach makes the gas to move out. Once the stomach is blocked, this movement is affected and the gas accumulates in the stomach. The result will be a badly bloated stomach leading to a painful death.
