Hello David, Someone I mentioned Oxbile to had a good question and it stumped me. Why would oxbile be so helpful in digesting fats, if the main diet of ox is fresh grass or hay? Why would an ox have developed such great fat-digesting bile? Thank you, Jessa

There are fats in grain and cattle actually eat quite a few insects which are very high in fats, so therefor they have the ability to digest fats.
