Bovid

/ˈboʊvɪd/ noun

Definition

A member of the family Bovidae, which includes cattle, buffalo, goats, sheep, antelopes, and related hoofed mammals.

Etymology

From Latin bos (cattle) + -id (member of a family, as in scientific naming). Used in zoological classification to identify animals within the biological family Bovidae.

Kelly Says

Bovids conquered nearly every ecosystem on Earth—from snow-capped mountains to scorching deserts—making them one of nature's most successful mammal families, and they're the source of human wealth through milk, meat, and fiber.
