Among our animal friends the cow holds a very high rank. Not only in India but also in. Egypt, she is worshipped as mother. It is because she has served mankind for the countless centuries as diary cattle and as an indirect helper of agriculture and some of important industries.
Her body-
The cow is a wide –spread domestic animal. Every body must have been seen it. It is generally two or three cubits high and four to five cubits long. She has a switch of hair at the end. Cows are of various colors they may be white, black, and brown spotted or brindled. All the cows have no front teeth in the upper jaw. On the whole, a cow puts on fair appearance.
Her food –
Cows are by nature grazers, A healthy cow 4eats 150! bs of grass in a day. They are also fed upon straw, grains and oil cakes. The crows in USA are given adequate amount of protein, calcium and vitamins to eat. The cow swallows her food and at the time of rest she coughs it back and chews it. It is digested by the third and forth chambers.
Habits-
The cow is usually a peaceful and gentle animal. It does not attack any body. But if some one goes near her calf, a mother cow shows her bad temper to protect it. Cows love their master as well. Their love for them sometimes becomes so strong that they refuse to eat if taken away from them.
Her usefulness –
The uses of the cow are many and various. For our health. She gives us milk which contains almost all vitamins and is the most nourishing food for all. For agriculture she gives her calves which are hitched to plough. Draw our carts and help the farmer enormously in the farm work. Most of our shoes. Purses and suitcases are made from her excellent hide. The best combs are made from the glue which is found in her horns. Thus every part of the cow is useful to a man.
The cow is great benefactor of mankind. Yet she is slaughtered for meat in almost all countries. Even in India where Lord Krishna gave her the most dignifies place, she is sadly neglected. It is nothing but our barbarism. The cow must be saved if we want to save ourselves.
