An animal (usually a cow or other bovine) that gives birth to calves, especially one in the process of giving birth.
Formed from calve plus the agent suffix -er, creating a noun for something or someone that performs the action of calving. Common in agricultural and veterinary terminology.
Farmers pay close attention to their calverts because the process of giving birth can be dangerous for both mother and calf—a retained placenta or difficult birth can be life-threatening, so experienced farmers are essentially midwives to their cattle.
