A cow is a female bovine... A bull is a male bovine...
A steer is a castrated male bovine...
There is no such thing as a male cow...
Branding is rare today, most people use ear tags now...
Right, I guess if you want to be specific that is correct, most people are not aware of the difference thus the "cow".
Also, The ear tag thing may be true in some places but at least in the general area I am familiar with branding + ear tag are still done basically everywhere.
