The natural, unbleached skin of a cow with its hair is called cowhide. Cowhide can be turned into leather for belts, shoes, and other items.
Skin/hide.
Cattle are not called steers, rather steers are called cattle, when loosely referring to more than one steer or indiscriminate bovine. Steers are cattle because cattle are a collection of bovines that include steers, as well as cows, heifers, bulls and calves. However, cattle can be called steers if these cattle are specifically castrated male bovines, but cattle should not be called steers if they are not specifically and only castrated male bovines.
Steers, steer calves, yearling bulls, bull calves, bullocks, or calves. Steers and bullocks are castrated male bovines that are castrated after birth or at weaning. Bulls are intact male bovines, and range from being calves, yearlings, or mature animals.
The word ox or oxen can actually refer to both male and female bovines. A female ox is a cow, the male ox is a bull.
A "daddy cow" is known as the sire. In actuality, cows are mature female bovines, or the "mommy cow," or more properly known as the dam. Bulls are intact/mature male bovines, hence being the "daddy cow" or sire of a calf or next-generation bull, steer, cow or heifer.
Yes! Cows are mature female bovines that have given birth to at least two calves. Heifers are females who have not given birth at all during their lifetime, and first-calf heifers are heifers that have given birth to their first calf. Steers and bulls, on the other hand, are MALES. Steers are male bovines that have been castrated or neutered (some people like to refer to them as "castrated bulls"), and bulls are intact male bovines that have not been castrated and are used (or going to be used) for breeding purposes.

Strictly speaking, no, because "cows" are female bovines. Bulls, which are male bovines, do have testicles. Steers are castrated bovines and therefore have had their testicles removed.

Cows are female bovines. Bulls are male bovines. Therefore they have the same digestive system!!
Male rhinos are called bulls. However, if you are referring to the bovine bull or bovines in general, no, it is not a cousin of the rhino.
No. Cows are female mature bovines. Bulls are male. Thus there is no such thing as a "boy cow" or "male cow."
In part. Bulls also refer to intact male bovines, male rhinos, male hippos, male caribou, male elk, male elephants, male seals, etc.
Definitely not. Heifers are young female bovines, never male. The opposite of a heifer would be a young bull, which is a young male bovine.
They are long-haired Yaks
A bull is an intact mature male bovine that is primarily used for the purpose of breeding cows and heifers in order to produce offspring called calves. Oxen, on the other hand, (singular being ox), are castrated male bovines (and occasionally female bovines) that are trained and used for draft work.
Cows are female bovines while bulls are male bovines. Therefore, cows have a female reproductive tract including ovaries and a uterus, which a bull does not have. The bull will have a male reproductive tract including testicles and a prostate gland, which a cow does not have.
A female walrus is called a cow.
