2. Feeding characteristics: Cattle are herbivores and mainly feed on grass, hay, feed and other plants. Due to their large food intake and complex digestive system, they are able to fully digest and absorb plant cellulose and other nutrients.

4. Vocal characteristics: Cows have a deep voice, which is usually used to communicate with peers or express dissatisfaction.


5. Special abilities: Some breeds of cattle have special abilities. For example, Tibetan cattle can adapt to the harsh environment at high altitudes, Arctic cattle can adapt to cold climates, and Holstein cows are known for their high milk production.
