Mad Brahmins

Mad Brahmins is a special encounter in Fallout 2 in which you meet a herd of mad brahmin that come running towards you. In Fallout 2, these brahmin explode on contact, making them very dangerous to unprepared players, especially at low levels. It's a good idea to enter combat mode and run for the exit grid.

This is probably a reference to mad-cow disease.
