Answer:

here is your answer boi

Explanation:

After a cow gives birth, she starts sniffing and licking her newborn calf. In this bonding process, she learns to recognize her calf, and commits to caring for it and protecting it. Her actions are a complex blend of hormonal-induced and learned behavior. Mature cows that have had calves before are more apt to quickly and successfully mother their offspring than first-time heifers. It’s important to understand maternal behavior and how to help prevent confusion or stress at calving time.

Experience is part of the equation, since older cows tend to be more consistent mothers than heifers, but hormones are the key factor.
