{{Term/Store|Cow|Cows|Series, MM, MM3D|plural}} are a recurring species in {{TLoZ|Series}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 62 {{Exp Game|Series}}}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|How many {{Color|MM3D Red|cows}} are there at {{Color|MM3D Red|Romani Ranch}}?|Keaton|MM3D}}</ref> They are [[Hyrule]]'s primary source of [[Milk]], and are kept in the land's various farms. A few Cows seem to strangely possess the ability to talk, such as speaking to [[Link]]. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
==={{OoT|-}}=== | |||
In {{OoT}}, Cows can be found all over Hyrule. Many can be found in various holes and caverns, but a few are also kept at [[Lon Lon Ranch]], and tended to by [[Talon]] and [[Malon]]. In this game, a free Bottle of Milk can be obtained by playing "[[Epona's Song]]" in front of a Cow. They will appreciate the song, and give Link milk for it.<ref>{{Cite|Moooooooooo! What a nice song... It reminds me of the pasture... That song makes me feel so good, I can produce a lot of milk! Have some of my refreshing and nutritious milk!|Cow|OoT}}</ref> In the {{MQ}} version, several Cows can be found [[Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly]]. These Cows serve a rather odd function of being a switch, unlocking doors and dropping Treasure Chests or items when hit by the [[Slingshot]]. | |||
Link can win his own Cow by beating the Obstacle Course record at Lon Lon Ranch. The Cow will be delivered to [[Link's House|his house]] and can be found in his room. | |||
==={{MM|-}}=== | |||
Cows are also featured in {{MM}}. They are not as commonly found around [[Termina]] as they are in Hyrule, but there are several special "Romani-Bred" Cows at [[Romani Ranch]], from which one can milk [[Chateau Romani]].<ref>{{Cite|The special Romani-bred cows are the source of Chateau Romani, the most desired of forbidden milk! It is a mystical milk that fills you with Magic Power...|Cremia|MM}}</ref> As in {{OoT|-}}, "Epona's Song" can be played to a Cow, and they will produce regular Milk to give to Link for free.<ref>{{Cite|Moo! Nice moooosic. It reminds me of the pasture. That song just makes me want to let go and put out a lot of milk! I'll give some to you. Milk will make you very healthy.|Cow|MM}}</ref> The [[Ghost (Majora's Mask)|Ghost]]s come on the first day to abduct the Cows from the Ranch, and Link is hired by [[Romani]] to fend them off.<ref>{{Cite|My older sister won't believe me... But Romani must protect the cows! Hey, Grasshopper, I'm recruiting for an assistant right now! You're a boy, won't you try?|Romani|MM}}</ref> If Link fails, the Cows are taken, and the girl with them. | |||
Cow figurines are also found on the counters of many shops in [[Clock Town]], and they are the subject of one of [[Keaton]]'s questions.<ref>{{Cite|Answer me this... Pick one of the three choices... How many tiny cow figurines are there in Clock Town?|Keaton|MM}}</ref> | |||
== | ==={{TMC|-}}=== | ||
{{Plural|TMC|Cow}} also appear in {{TMC}}, although they appear slightly differently than their past incarnations. The majority of these {{Plural|TMC|Cow}} appear in {{Term|TMC|Lon Lon Ranch|link}} under the care of {{Term|TMC|Talon|link}} and {{Term|TMC|Malon|link}}, where they produce {{Term|TMC|Lon Lon Milk|link}} that {{Term|TMC|Malon}} brings to {{Term|TMC|Hyrule Town|link}}, via {{Term|TMC|Epona|link}} and cart, to be sold. {{Plural|TMC|Cow}} also serve as occasional road blocks and will only move once {{Term|TMC|Link|link}} has progressed further on his quest. | |||
{{Term|TMC|Elsie|link}}, one of the {{Plural|TMC|Cow}} at {{Term|TMC|Lon Lon Ranch|link}}, can {{Term|TMC|Kinstone Fusion|link|display=Fuse}} {{Plural|TMC|Kinstone|link}} with {{Term|TMC|Link}} if he is {{Term|TMC|Minish|link}}-sized. A {{Term|TMC|Cow}} also appears in the "At Lon Lon Ranch" {{Term|TMC|Figurine|link}}. | |||
==={{BotW|-}}=== | |||
{{Main|Hateno Cow}} | |||
Domestic variants of {{Term|BotW|Water Buffalo|link}}, known as {{Plural|BotW|Hateno Cow|link}}, appear in {{BotW}}. They can be found grazing in [[Hateno Pasture]]. | |||

In the {{OoA|Himekawa}}, Link wins 200 Rupees and a Cow after winning an arena match.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= THE WINNER IS...'''''LINK!''''' HIS PRIZE...200 RUPEES AND ONE COW!|book= {{OoA|Himekawa|-}}|publisher= VIZ Media|page= 8}}</ref> [[Impa]] angrily raises the Cow over her head after scolding Link for entering the match.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= AND WHAT'RE YOU GOING TO '''''DO''''' WITH A '''''COW'''''?|book= {{OoA|Himekawa|-}}|publisher= VIZ Media|page= 11}}</ref> Her mood changes when Link reveals to have won the Cow for his grandmother, who needs another one.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= I THOUGHT I'D SEND IT TO THE FARM.
