Illustration: At a small Hokkaido dairy farm, a full-grown cow stands sideways beside a wooden feeding barrier, its broad body, cloven hooves, udder, and long tufted tail unobstructed. It stretches its wide muzzle toward a farm worker's shoulder and catches a stray piece of hay stuck to the worker's jacket.
