Cattle
Bos taurus

Field Notes
Description:
They are a prominent modern member of the subfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos, and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos taurus.
Notes:
Around 10,500 years ago, cattle were domesticated from as few as 80 progenitors in southeast Turkey.
Cattle can recognize familiar individuals. Visual individual recognition is a more complex mental process than visual discrimination. It requires the recollection of the learned idiosyncratic identity of an individual that has been previously encountered and the formation of a mental representation.
