What does the Cow emoji mean?
1
A cow shown on all fours facing left — typically white with black spots, a tail, short horns, and a pink udder. It’s also sometimes used as an insulting way to call someone unattractive.
2
A large, horned female animal that produces milk and offspring. A cow is about the same size as a bull. A farm animal kept for its milk and meat. The emoji shows the whole animal standing on four hooves, typically white with black markings.
