The cow rumen contains a multitude of microorganisms that conjointly adhere to and degrade plant fiber. Here, SEM micrographs present several areas of a single fiber particle removed from a cannulated cow and submitted to intensive washes. The observed microorganisms are tightly attached to the fiber particle. The sample was coated with 5 nm chrome and imaged using a Verios 460 L FEI HRSEM. Scale bars are indicated.
