Regurgitation of cud is a normal part of the digestive process in a cow. Cows belong to a group of animals known as ruminants, and have four distinct stomachs, including the rumen. The rumen is essentially a large fermentation vat where microbes "pre-digest" the food that the cow eats. When a cow is ruminating properly, she should chew her cud on a frequent basis. Just like a person who is ruminating over a thought, a cow who is ruminating and chewing her cud is processing her food over and over again. If a cow is violently regurgitating her cud, she has likely been exposed to a toxin and requires immediate veterinary attention.
