Cows have ALWAYS been a calf when they were younger. There is no animal that has never BEEN a youngster before, EVER. Heifers are females that have never HAD a calf, not never BEEN a calf. Cows are females that have been calves when they were born; bulls are males that have been calves when they were younger, so were steers and oxen. They just grew out of their need for their mother's protection and milk. Simple as that.
