A cow's hind leg is typically longer than the front leg, just like our leg is longer than our arm. Leg length, however, depends on the frame size (which is height over width and depth of the animal, in a manner of speaking), and the breed. On average, the front leg of a cow is typically 24 to 30 inches long, and the back leg is 48 to over 50 inches tall. Taller cattle will have longer legs than shorter cattle, and miniature or low-line cattle are shorter in leg length than normal-sized or medium to large-framed cattle.
