stress-FREE orientation: human or bovine?

Humans need a value-system and life-goals to orientate themselves by if they want to live a needs-based stress-FREE, truly happy life.  Stress-FREEDOM can serve both as a life-goal and as a high value at the same time.

For physical orientation we can use a simple bovine compass orientated on the North-South axis:

BOVINE INTUITION - Cows Demonstrate Mysterious Inner Compass

Red deer and cows orient themselves on a North-South axis, showing a previously undocumented feel for points of the compass. German scientists discovered the strange alignment by analyzing Google Earth images of 308 pastures.

 I have always felt that there was something human about cows. Now, why is the term “bovine” mostly used disparagingly e.g. by Nietzsche?
