Moo-dy teenagers and cows are not that different, UBC study shows GlobeBC

. They were consistent in their personality during the rearing period between one month to three months and as an adult between one year to 2.5 years.

The researchers also found that, like humans, some cows are extroverts or introverts. Some are more assertive while others are shy, and that remains consistent throughout their lifespan. “For it to be a personality trait, it must be consistent,” Prof. von Keyserlingk said, further explaining that the researchers monitored cattle in different scenarios to see how they reacted to new situations, new humans, new objects and new environments.

Prof. von Keyserlingk added cows and humans aren’t the only ones that experience changes in personality around puberty: squid, fish, hens and mammals such as hamsters and mice also have fluctuations.
