The Top Ten

1 Cow Cow Cattle—colloquially cows—are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates. They are a prominent modern member of the subfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos, and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos taurus.

They give us food, drink, and clothes (leather). Back then, cows can be used to plow the land - XxDarkStorm_PhoenixMothxX

They are very useful since they provide man with lots of things like milk, beef etc.

Not that useful since they speak methane in the air which is bad for the environment! Goats and sheep are a lot more helpful! - missyweirdo

Yes, sheep is useful. Like MT said. Their milk is popular, their wool is needed for making clothes, and their meats are also good - zxm

I have always wanted to have a few sheep.I think they are so sweet.And in the spring watching the lambs playing and jumping.But can anyone tell me can a sheep bloat? As a kid my parents had cows and I've seen them bloat.

Milk, meat and wool (i.e. clothes, blankets). - Metal_Treasure

9 Camel Camel A camel is an even-toed ungulate within the genus Camelus, bearing distinctive fatty deposits known as "humps" on its back.

You can't see Camel in every country. And it may not be useful in every country. But for desert areas camels are very useful. They can store fat/water in their humps. Which can provide them their water. So they can travel trough deserts for many days. People of those areas can use them for traveling through deserts, or use them for carrying things and also can eat their meat - zxm

Desert version of Horse and cow. - zxm

10 Goat Goat The domestic goat is a subspecies of goat domesticated from the wild goat of southwest Asia and Eastern Europe.

A world without bees, is the end of the world

Bees are useful in so many ways, like providing honey as a sweetener instead of sugar, and helping the plants to grow by pollinating them.

Monkey is very animal

13 Pigeon Pigeon Pigeons and doves constitute the bird family Columbidae, which includes about 310 species. Pigeons are stout-bodied birds with short necks, and short slender bills. They primarily feed on seeds, fruits, and plants.

Pigeons make great pets

Besides carrying messages (which saved many lives in wartime), they are meat birds. I don't eat my beloved pet pigeons, though. - Crwth

Can be used for sending messages - zxm

"Don't insult pigeons? " Is that a serious demand? Will you be writing a manifesto?

The pigeon was the only animal on this list to receive a truly derogatory comment. When you denigrate pigeons, you insult us pigeon fanciers, and we will defend our birds. - Crwth

16 Human Human Humans are not exactly wild animals, but they are not domesticated either. Humans are proven to be the most intelligent species of animals on Earth. Humans' colours vary from almost pepper black to milky white.

Most of the animals above would not have the opportunity to serve those functions without humans and some of them aren't even useful for those functions anymore because humans are more useful and we replaced them by building machines.

Lol

Humans are animals technically except we just gave ourselves the title of 'human' and 'sevalized'.

17 Snake Snake Snakes are elongated, legless, carnivorous reptiles of the suborder Serpentes that can be distinguished from legless lizards by their lack of eyelids and external ears. About 600 species are venomous, some of which can be fatal to humans if no medical help is sought.

Heard they are used for creating medicine - zxm

18 Rabbit Rabbit Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in several parts of the world.

20 Turtle Turtle Turtles are diapsids of the order Testudines characterized by a special bony or cartilaginous shell developed from their ribs and acting as a shield. "Turtle" may refer to the order as a whole or to fresh-water and sea-dwelling testudines.

Spitting randomly

22 Cat Cat The "House Cat", also known as the Domestic Cat or the Feral Cat, is a small feline, a good hunter, and comes in a variety of colors and fur patterns. Contrary to popular belief, however, they are not truly domesticated. They are highly intelligent and good at problem solving.

Are you for real? Cats are less useful than spiders? They catch rabbits, rats and mice and clear them away. Mine also once scared a big fox away.

Why last place?

23 Spiders

Spiders catch and eat mosquitoes and other harmful insects to human. Therefore, spiders are useful. Just don't make them fight, or even catch one. Because some of them are poisonous.
