Mostly True
Cows can form friendships, feel separation pain, understand insults, and cry.
Infact verdict: Mostly True (62/100).
The claims about cows forming friendships and feeling separation pain are supported by multiple sources indicating cows form social bonds and experience stress when separated. However, the claim that cows understand insults and can cry lacks strong evidence. While cows exhibit complex social behaviors and emotional responses, the specific ability to understand insults and cry is not well-supported by scientific evidence.
