  • Awesome video its a pleasure the became a vet :)

  • alex3st your a idiot

  • this actually says cows are carnivores, they eat microbes

  • It's the food chain and we are at the top. I don't see lions or sharks going vegetarian.

  • Yea we're not the same as cows but we're certainly not better than them. Nothing's meaning in life is to be slaughtered and eaten so why kill innocent cows, pigs and sheep just so kids can get obesified off McDonald's burgers? :/ Unfair if you ask me. What did cows ever do to us?

  • @WeePepsi they decided to be delicious

  • @tatnell Uh no? We decided to be brutal and eat them. You'd probably taste the same if you made your arm or something into meat. :/

  • I agree humans are animals but, Cattle are not OUR EQUALS....We eat them

  • cows R NOT meat they R flesh and animals Like we R too!

  • @papaya774 SO FREAKIN TRUE !

  • @papaya774 - YEAH THUMBS UP b!

  • Comment removed

  • @amensigala I totally agree :/ We ARE equal to them and they don't deserve to be killed. Plus, what idiot spammed your comment? It's a damn good one.

  • @WeePepsi Are you from India? Do you practice Hinduism? Why do you got so much love for cows? They're delicious!

  • Eeeeeo

  • Alguem pode legendar?

  • Cows obtain their protein (outside of dietary protein) from the microbe themselves. The microbes in the abomasum can synthesize the urea (produced from protein metabolism) to supplement the cow's diet with even more protein (in a sort of protein cycle). The microbes own "bodies" also provide protein to the cow; the abomasum produces lysozyme that breaks down the bacteria that pass into this chamber, enabling the cow to obtain even more protein.

  • Wow!!!..i like this video using a real cow with the animation outside and the man explaining it....very helpful...bout one of the best videos of cow digestion i've seen

  • Excellent!!!!

  • very helpful for studying thanks

  • how come the cow can produce protein from grass?

    i tihink it would be incedible to find out the compounds that does this transformaiton.

  • The cow can produce protein from carbs (grass) with the help from its microbacterial flora in its stomach. The way this works is that the microbes ferments carbs and produces 3 fatacids, one of them being puryvate. Then the microbes add Nitrogen, either given from the cow in the form of Urea in the cow's spit, or taken from the DNA molecules in the grasscells, and adds the Nitro to the fatacids forming aminoacids. These a-acids are the buildingblock for proteins and thus protein are formed.

  • cows can probably not eat WHATEVER as the video says.

  • can someone confirm this is right?

    because i think ihave seen picture of cows having 4 stomachs heh

  • @TheRogueMonk nope, they only have 1 true stomach. this is cmg from my uni prof.

  • anyone got a better video*?
