A calf (plural calves) is the young of a certain species of mammal. The term is most commonly used to refer to the young of cattle. The young of bison, camels, dolphins, elephants, giraffes, hippopotamuses, moose, rhinoceroses, whales, and yaks, also are called calves.A cattle calf is the offspring of a cow and a bull. A calf that has lost its mother is referred to as a dogie. Calf meat is called veal; fine calf skin used for pages in early codexes is called pergamon. The fourth compartment of the stomach of slaughtered milk-fed calves is the source of rennet. Calves feed from their mother's udder for a few weeks before eating solid food.
