家牛或称黄牛、歐洲牛（学名：Bos taurus）是哺乳類偶蹄目牛科牛亚科牛属中一群已經驯化的動物。这种群居动物的祖先为原牛，大约8千年前被人类驯化成家养的牲畜。如今地球上生存着13亿只家牛，遍布除了南极洲以外的每一块大陆。家牛同人类的生活极为密切，一般将它们用来作为肉、奶或皮革的来源，在化石燃料大规模使用之前，家牛也是主要的畜力来源之一。为了更好地利用家牛所提供的资源，人类長期進行配種，按其特征可以分为供食用的及产奶的奶牛，用于耕作的家牛则日渐减少。在人类的文化中，家牛一般占有很高的地位，早期台灣的農家子弟禁吃牛肉，1949年的《印度宪法》与《尼泊尔宪法》甚至禁止宰牛。人们大多将其同力量、财富等联系起来，许多地区将家牛视作忠诚、勤劳的象征。不过因为其外形和从事的工作，有时也会被当做卑贱、粗暴的象征。
