What is a "cow"?

A cow is a large mammal that belongs to the family Bovidae and is commonly used for milk and meat production. Cows are known for their distinctive appearance, with a stout body, four legs, and a large head adorned with horns in some species. They are herbivorous animals that typically graze on grasses and other vegetation. Cows are domesticated animals and have been selectively bred by humans for various purposes, including milk production, beef production, and as draft animals. They are widely distributed across the world and are an important source of food and livelihood for many human populations. Cows are also revered in some cultures and have cultural and religious significance in various traditions. Cows are known for their docile nature and their ability to form strong social bonds with other members of their herd.
