“The cow’s digestive system is a wonderful machine: it allows cows to get energy from an undisputed resource that humans can’t digest: grass — 1/4 of Earth’s land area is grasslands. This unique evolutionary aptitude allowed herds of ruminants to thrive across the Old World, even before mankind domesticated them.
