farm animal
Cow or pig
A farm animal is any animal kept on a farm for agricultural purposes—producing food, fiber, or labor.
The category typically includes cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, and horses, though it extends to any domesticated species raised in farming contexts: The children loved visiting the farm animals at the petting zoo.
The term often evokes rural life and is common in children's educational materials.
