Quick Cow facts:
Do cows have horns? Yes, female bovines almost always have horns. While
some cows are naturally polled (which means horn-free), the majority have their
horns removed when they are calves to make them safer to handle. So, YES,
cows can indeed have horns!
Oreo cookie cows? Yes, there are "belted" bovines out there!
More cow facts!
- Old cows in India have their own nursing home.
- The Simmental was officially establish in the Swiss Canton of Berne in the 1800s (the first herdbook), but there is evidence that this type of cattle had been in existence for hundreds of years before that.
- Cheese has been made since ancient times. Milk from cows, and possibly other animals, was made into cheese by approximately 1000 BC.
- Brahman cattle come in different colors, including black, brown, white, grey, red, and spotted, although solid grey and red are most common.
- The mean gestation period for Holsteins is 279 days. The mean gestation period for Brown Swiss is 290 days.
- A cow spends an average of 6 hours eating and 8 hours chewing cud.
- The Watusi has the biggest horns -- the horns' spread can reach up to 8 feet across, and the diameter of the horns at the base can be as large as 8 inches.
- The native home of the Tarentaise cow is very mountainous; no other French cattle graze in an area with as high an altitude and such dramatic changes in elevation.
