Bœuf domestique Bos taurus Vache bruneen Engadine dans l'est des Alpes suisses Espèce Bos taurusLinnaeus, 1758 Synonymes * Bos primigenius Bojanus, 1827 * Bos primigenius taurus * Bos primigenius f. taurus Le Bœuf domestique (Bos taurus) est une espèce de bovins de l'Ancien Monde issu de l'aurochs sauvage. Il s'agit d'un mammifère artiodactyle de grande taille (120 à 150 cm pour 600 à 800 kg) appartenant au sous-ordre des Ruminants. Deux sous-espèces principales sont distinguées : le Bœuf domestique d'Europe (Bos taurus taurus, syn. Bos primigenius taurus) et le Zébu (Bos taurus indicus, syn. Bos primigenius f. taurus), auxquelles certains auteurs ajoutent Bos taurus primigenius, l'aurochs éteint au XVIIe siècle sous sa forme sauvage, mais dont les éleveurs tentent de reconstituer une race très proche. Bos taurus a été domestiqué il y a 10 000 ans au Moyen-Orient, puis son élevage s'est progressivement développé sur l'ensemble de la planète. Il a surtout été exploité pour la production de viande bovine et de lait et le travail. Les bovins sont exploités également à la production de cuir, de cornes pour les couteaux, ou de bouses pour le chauffage et la fertilisation des sols. Les bovins ont toujours passionné l'être humain, pour lequel le taureau est un symbole de force et de fertilité. C'est pourquoi ces animaux sont présents dans diverses religions. Ils font partie intégrante de la culture occidentale, et ils sont retrouvés en tant que thème d'inspiration des peintres et des sculpteurs ou comme personnages de bandes dessinées, de films ou de publicités.
