Official State Domesticated Animal of Wisconsin

The dairy cow (Bos taurus) was designated the state domesticated animal of Wisconsin in 1971 (the state mammal is the badger).

The dairy industry has been important to Wisconsin's economy and heritage. A dairy cow is featured on the U.S. Mint's Wisconsin quarter, and milk is the official state beverage of Wisconsin.

Each dairy cow produces about 6.5 gallons of milk per day. Less than half of this milk is consumed as a beverage, the rest is used for butter, cheese, ice cream, milk powder and other processed products.
