Humans bred cows, they did not evolve. Nature's cows (buffalo etc.) live in very, very large herds for protection.

  Darwin had a term for this, selective breeding or artificial selection

  Pedantic: cattle (cows be females). The aurochs didn't really live in large herds. It was just huge and cranky, and had big horns. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurochs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurochs

    It's always nice, if you're going to go around saying "pedantic:", to have what you say afterward be correct. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cow http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cow
