Quick Fact of the day: Cow teeth

Quite moooo-ving facts
Quite a mooo-ving fact

Cows don’t have upper front teeth. They do have molars in the top back of their mouths though. Where you’d expect upper incisors, cows, sheep, and goats have a thick layer of tissue called a “dental pad.” They use that with their bottom teeth to pull out grass.

No need for dentures for these guys they’re doing just fine!
