Cattle are domesticated ungulates, commonly referred to as cows or bulls. They are large mammals with cloven hooves and a characteristic hump on their backs. Cattle are primarily raised for their meat, milk, and leather. They have been an essential part of human civilization for thousands of years, providing food, labor, and various byproducts. Cattle are known for their docile nature and herding behavior, often found grazing in pastures or rangelands.
