  1. What About A Cow’s Digestive System?

  2. What is a Rumen? • the first stomach of ruminating  animals (cows & sheep) • food is regurgitated (as cud) for rumination • brings up swallowed food (usually grass or hay), chews it, and swallows it. This aids the animal by allowing it to eat quickly and chew later while it is resting. • cellulose is broken down by the action of symbiotic microorganisms
