How much a cow produce a milk in her lifetime


A cow produces around 200,000 glasses of milk in her lifetime. The milk bottle was invented in 1884. Plastic milk containers came later – in 1964. Cows are not innocent as they seem---

Your image of cows is probably similar to      mine – gentle, placid animals looking at you with those large, soft cow eyes and contentedly chewing their cud. But a recent article published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that about 20 people a year are killed by cows in the United States. The cows actually attack humans – ramming them, knocking them down, goring them, trampling them and kicking them in the head – resulting in fatal injuries to the head and chest.


These behaviors remind us that mother cows, like other animals, can be fiercely protective of their young. 


 The bond between a cow and her calf is very strong and continues after the calf is fully grown. In non-commercial herds, some cows will nurse their calves for up to three years.
