    Humanity has coexisted with cows as well, but we still eat them. Its part of the same reason why cows are revered as holy in India.

    There are likely many who look at beef eaters as general westerners look at dog eaters.

        There are legitamately cultures who live with a cow in their homes as they provide a natural way to warm up the house.

        Another perspective to look at how domesticated the animal is. A cow, alone will barely survive in the wild. A dog has a higher chance of survival. Does it mean that the Cow is more domesticated than the dog? Cows dont compete with humans on food, help till land, provide manure for crops.
