Whether Larson knew this and was drawing an anatomically accurate horned cow or was under the common misconception that cows lack horns and was trying to make a double layered joke about “someone has a stupid question about everything, even a simple picture of a cow” in conjunction with “but actually if you look closely enough there’s something to question about this particular cow picture” I dunno.
Is it because of horns and utters together?
Apparently female cows (it’s redundant yeah, but trying to be clear) DO grow horns, they just get cut off in captivity when they’re calves: https://www.online-field-guide.com/do-female-cows-have-horns/

So many layers
