We talked avout it too. In animal behaviour, about cows. And maternal behaviour, even in animals (who are supposed to be more instinct-driven), is learned. If the farming is careless and the calves are separated from the mother too soon, they won't learn it and they'll probably ignore their own youngs afterwards.
