They’ll die in four minutes. I’ve seen cattle die from jumping a fence and getting into wet alfalfa and you can track their path back—-less than 50’ into the field and they are down. It’s definitely bloat and there is clover in the pics. Yellow wood sorrel or yellow hop clover, No debate about that.

If the belly was swollen due to putrefaction, takes a day or more and both sides swollen to the point the forequarters and hind quarters are off the ground and rolled part way onto back and all four legs would be pointed in four different directions.

They always die laying on their right side. Can probably guess how I know.
