There are wild bovines like Buffalo and Bison but not wild cattle/cows as they, by their very definition, have been domesticated by humans over the ages. Oxen are domesticated bovines trained to pull stuff.

I only found out recently that all dogs breeds are descended from the common grey wolf, selectively bred over thousands of years by humans.

The domestication of animals is quite fascinating, read up on it

I think they're modeled on the flight patterns of fighter planes - certainly, in the case of Star Wars, George Lucas made the space battles look like WWII dog fights.

I suppose it's just simpler from our perspective.

Anyway, the transporter in Star Trek throws up more questions than this!

Why can't I focus on the colours I see when I shut my eyes?

Also, why does the fact that my eyes are shut allow me to sleep? I'm still seeing, just really close up.
