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.
