14 de oct. de 2023 · Cows, in their various forms, have left an indelible mark on human history. From the aurochs of ancient times to the diverse cattle breeds of today, their evolution and domestication have played a pivotal role in the development of human societies, agriculture, and cultures worldwide.
The link between wild cattle and humans has existed for thousands of years. Five species of wild cattle have been domesticated approximately in the last 10500 years (Helmer et al. 2005). This domestication process has provided many benefits to humans, from meat and milk, to draught animals (see also Chapter 3 in my book for more details).
