A cow, like other animals in Wurm, will not yield [[meat]] when butchering if they are starving. Fat cows, on the other hand, will yield extra meat upon butchering. Cows may wander while grazing for food, so [[fence]] them in a large area with lots of grass or crops. Cows can and usually will destroy crops over time by walking on them, so only put them on your extra fields.
'''Cows''' , including hitched ones, will be hunted down by carnivorous animals and mobs.
