How are cows limited in terms of their habitat?

Best Answer

Primarily by the fences that their owners (farmers and ranchers) put up to prevent them from running amok in the countryside. Cows are also limited by the way they are dependent on people to feed them and give them shelter, especially cows that live in the northern climates where there is deep snow for 5 to 6 months out of the year. They are also limited by the way they don't have the strong instinct like bison do to move around to different areas to graze if they were provided a vast area to graze on. Instead they spread out and eat different areas of the paddock then complain loudly they don't have enough food until the rancher comes and herds them onto fresh pasture/range.
