Facts

Cows (Bos taurus) are the largest domestic animals. They are the most widespread species of this genus (large Hornets).

In india, cattle are sacred. There are an estimated 1.3 billion cattle worldwide.

Cow Feed

The cow's stomach has 4 co-parts: bellows, curds, hardwood and rennet. This composition is adapted to a grazed and quickly swallowed vegetable food.

The bellows, bulky, has a capacity of about 20 liters; in it the grass is stored.

The stump and the deciduous have wrinkled walls, and in the curd the digestive juice is produced.

Cow Appearance

It has a body covered with short hair, the color varying by breed. The head has a long snout with wet lips.

On them there are nostrils. He has movable ears and large eyes. By the neck hangs a skin fold called the waistband.

The horns are hollow inside. The voluminous trunk ends with a long tail with bristles at the top.

On the ventral side there is a nipple with four nipples.

Each foot ends with two fingers wrapped in Horny hooves, which protect the fingers. On the mandible there are six wide, sharp incisors, directed obliquely forward, on the jaw they are missing, the anterior part of which is covered with a horny Blade.

Next comes an empty spot called the bar (the canines are missing). The masses have crescent-shaped enamel ridges on their surface.

The male is called an ox and is somewhat larger in stature than the cow. The largest Ox was weighed in 1910 at over 2 tons.

Features Cow

When pasta, the cow grabs the grass with its lips, squeezes it with its tongue into a clump and cuts it off with its incisors, which rest on the horny Blade. The grass gathers in the bellows.

When it fills, it finds a resting place and begins to ruminate; it is a ruminant herbivore. The grass passes from the bellows into the stump and from here into the mouth, where it is thoroughly chewed and ruminated, by the movements of the mandible left and right.

The grass chewed and soaked with saliva passes this time into the deciduous and from here into the clot, where digestion continues, which ends in the small intestine.

Cow Breeding

The gestation period of a cow is 9 months.

A calf weighs 25 to 45 kg at birth.

Once a year, the cow gives birth to a calf, which she feeds on milk produced by the mothers.
