Cows are not used just for their meat, milk, and leather, many, many products from cows are used and worn in our everyday lives, far more than many of us can fathom. The parts of cows are used in everything from the entertainment industry that makes Horror/action movies using cow's blood to medical and pharmaceutical companies using insulin from the livers of cows for diabetics. Other products we use that come from cows in some form are paint, toothpaste, insulation for our homes, camera film, paintbrushes, asphalt, etc.

Cows, as living creatures, deposit manure which is commonly used in gardens and fields. Cows will also readily eat plants on land that is not suitable for crop production, and even "clean up" a field after it has been harvested, adding to the soil organic content with their manure. Much native grassland is so vast that cattle herds are needed to keep it intact and healthy because the native bison herds that are left are much too small to be used instead.
