Dairy cows are
vegetarians, they eat things like hay, grass, unprocessed grains, and shrubs
that humans can’t digest. The cows don’t
have teeth in the front part of their mouth, instead they have a hard
plate. The cows eat about 40 pounds of
food per day. Everyday cows drink a bathtub full of
water. |

These
dairy cows, which are raised on farms don’t have many predators. The main thing that kills/eats these cows
is humans. The cows that are used for
beef live most of their live in overcrowded feedlots. To make more money on the cow’s milk,
farmers inject the cows with a growth hormone so that they would produce more
milk. After the mother cows start to
make less milk, after about four year, they slaughter her for beef. |
