One of my Grandfathers had a small dairy herd and I used to help bring them in for milking. A few of them were quite placid but most of them would gleefully lash out with their hooves, or jab you with their horns, if they got half a chance.
Getting clumped on the kneecap, shin, thigh etc. by a craggy Friesian gave me a somewhat jaundiced opinion of bovines in general.

I only had this kind of experience with goats. All depends what breed it is, how they are treated and how much they learned to trust a human being.
