Gado-bovino-doméstico (nome científico: Bos taurus) é uma espécie de bovino do gênero Bos e da ordem Artiodactyla. É um mamífero ungulado e apresenta dois dígitos (dedos) em cada membro. O macho da espécie recebe o nome de boi, ou touro, enquanto que a fêmea é conhecida por vaca e o animal jovem por bezerro, e depois novilho. A espécie é um ruminante, ou seja, regurgita o alimento para a boca após sua ingestão, onde é novamente mastigado e deglutido. O estômago dos ruminantes é dividido em retículo, rúmen, omaso e abomaso. Essa espécie foi domesticada pelo homem e é utilizada em larga escala em muitas atividades como a produção de carne e de leite, representando grande importância para a economia de muitos países.
