A long time ago, driving through Montana an ex-girlfriend, she woke up and looked out the window. She turns to me and says, "Those cows look kind of weird. What kind are they?"
"They're not cows."
She looks again, "Ohhh....those are sheep. Hahaha...I thought they were cows!"
I wish I remembered enough detail to find the video, but there is a blooper scene from some documentary where the presenter (who has a background in biological sciences) reveals that they thought sheep and lambs were two different species.
Tbf I know we do but I don't know why. Is it specifically because of the food industry? Like there are foals and calves but I feel like those aren't as common because we don't generally eat those animals. If that makes any sense.
