Description

Fleckvieh cows have a white head, white legs, a white belly, and a white tuft. The rest of their coat is composed of light yellow or reddish-brown spots.

Grass is difficult to digest. Therefore, cows chew an average of 50 times per minute and about 30,000 times in total per day. Even with effort, humans generally chew each mouthful no more than 30 times. Cows produce about 150 liters of saliva per day to do this. This makes them very thirsty and causes them to drink a lot of water: up to 180 liters per day, which is the equivalent of a large bathtub filled to the brim. When they are very thirsty, they can drink up to 25 liters of water per minute.

Funny detail
Cows can smell fresh grass up to eight kilometers away.
