The udder is the mammary gland. It is found on female mammals, and it's purpose is to provide the young animal with milk for sustenance as it grows. On cows there are two pairs or glands, whist on other animals, such as sheep or deer, there is only one pair. Although not referred to as 'udders', human females, being mammals, also have mammary glands, although these are known as breasts.
