Why do we use cow manure in so many things but other animals’ poop (i.e. cats and dogs) are considered to be toxic?

Holy s**t. The highest comment here should be that cows have 4 distinct chambers in their digestive tract. Or commonly misunderstood as 4 stomachs. Their poo is closer to compost because its broken down more. One of the main arguments about adding chemicals to cow food is that the chemicals aren’t broken down and therefore carried to plants, milk and meat and hence to you. The chemicals that make cows huge may make you huge, the manure from cows on plants carries the chemicals to you etc.
Cats, dogs, humans 1 stomach, not digested enough. chemicals from them still in the poo. Parasites, yes. But do you know anyone that doesn’t take some kind of drug? Tylenol, caffeine, blood pressure medicine, ADHD ? There wouldn’t be dessert in Texas or anywhere if we could use humanure.
