In the Atharva Veda, a sorcerer's spell is compared to a dead one of these animals, and Rohini is mentioned as a god of these animals who helps prevent jaundice. The Atharva Veda also contains a story about the god Pushan giving one thousand of these animals as a gift to those who make sacrifices, and about one of these creatures who gave birth to twins and became a cannibal, but stopped after being given to a Brahman. In the Rig Veda, the river goddesses Vipas and Sutudri are compared to these animals for taking care of humans in a manner analogous to how these creatures take care of their young. Surabhi, also known as Khamadhenu, is one of these creatures that has to power to grant any wish. To escape from Vishnu, the Earth goddess Prithvi changed into a white one of these creatures. Gober is the Sanskrit term for the excrement of this animal, which is used for medicine and fertilizer, and these animals also produce ghee. For ten points, name this large land mammal that cannot be eaten by Hindus, to whom it is sacred, known for producing milk and saying "moo".
