Great to see Google takes cow privacy seriously pic.twitter.com/ACTBpDwno6— David Shariatmadari (@D_Shariatmadari) September 13, 2016

By default, people's faces, license plates and architecture, in some cases, are blurred out to preserve privacy and protect identities. Houses can be blurred on request.
In the case of the blurry-faced cow, it was Guardian's David Shariatamadari who first noticed Google's silent advocacy of cow rights (as seen above). He tweeted his findings and has since gotten nearly 13,000 retweets and over 16,000 likes.
When the BBC addressed Google about the cow, a Google responded with a punny comment:
We thought you were pulling the udder one when we herd the moos, but it's clear that our automatic face-blurring technology has been a little overzealous. Of course, we don't begrudge this cow milking its five minutes of fame.
