2.
COMPETITION & AGGRESSION
Cows get most competitive when it comes to being fed.
Other times, they aren't nice to other cows and human caretakers
Because of their living conditions.
If a cow doesn't have nice bedding or flooring, it will get aggressive.
Also, stress, frustration, and pain play a role. They are kind of like us!

TERRITORY
Cows don't mark their territory or protect it.
All they do is eat and move on.

ATTRACTING A MATE
Bulls show off for the cows in the heat by:
Growling, rumbling, rubbing themselves in the grass or dirt, or throw dirt on their backs.
If all else fails, they chase the female down.
Usually, though, the cows ignore the bull's attempts.

RAISING THEIR YOUNG
The cow (not the bull) and their calf have a very special relationship with one another.
The cows lick mucus off the calf, as an example.

ARE COWS QUICK LEARNERS?
It depends on the type of cow.
Some are quick others are slow at learning.
Research shows that they are very intelligent and have a long term memory.
They develop friendships over time and hold grudges on cows who treat them badly.
