Cow gives us milk, in some other country they use cow in farming. This is the animal that really contribute a great help not only for farmers but also in society. Cow not only gives us milk, help our farmers, but it also gives us meat.
Dairy cows are those that provides milk. 90% of the worlds milk supply is provided by dairy cows. The best cows give 25 gallons of milk each day. This milk is being use by humans and it gives nutrients and vitamins for the body. Others are being used as an infant formula, thus they considered cow as the second mother because it is cow's milk being feed to human babies.

Cows drink a bathtub full of water and eat around 40 pounds of food a day. They have 32 teeth. 8 incisors on the bottom front, 6 molars on the top and bottom of each side, a tough pad of skin instead of teeth on the top front.
We should be thankful for God's amazing creature which is the cow, because it gives us many things we need.
