Cow Appreciation Day is a day all about raising awareness about our bovine friends, the cow. After all, we should appreciate everything they provide for us. Some people in the US even dress up like cows to get free food from Chik-Fil-A. The takeaway joint invented this day to get people to skip their favourite burger joints and eat chicken instead! This day also helps to remind us of all the fantastic products that cows bring to our lives. So why not milk the situation? Haha! We are so punny!
So now that we’ve explained how this day came about, let’s moooove on to the fun facts.
Here are four things you probably didn’t know about cows.
- They’re extremely social.
This is a good enough reason to make them feel appreciated and visit them, don’t you think? Cows are emotional and social creatures by nature. They often form tight bonds with their family and friends. This is especially true when it comes to calves and their mothers. If separated, they start to show extreme distress and panic. Ahhh, no, sorry, guys!
- Saliva for days
Did you know that our beautiful cow friends can create a monumental 56 litres of saliva every day? That’s a lot of salivae, pretty insane, right?
- They don’t have four stomachs
A lot of people think that cows have four stomachs, but this simply just isn’t true. They have four chambers in their stomach instead. Ahhh, now that makes more sense, doesn’t it? These are the rumen, abomasum, omasum and reticulum chambers, and they all help break down the large amounts of tough grass that cows eat every day. This is probably why they produce so much saliva.
- Cows need to be happy!
Our last fact is regarding the milk that cows produce. Did you know that cows create more milk when they are in a happy or good mood? This was found out in a study that showed that cattle that lived a happier life made more nutritious milk, which had a greater amount of calcium. But if you sit down and think about it, this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise as even us humans are much more productive when we’re in a better mood. Go figure!
We don’t know about you but we find this day udderly cool! Happy Cow Appreciation day UR_Eekahians!
