Leather is just a couple treated layers of skin. Cows are like humans, always creating new skin and shedding the flakes of the old stuff. I imagine you could stain cow skin, but eventually it would just disappear.

Cows have hair on their skin that does get dirty and stained. Leather has the hair taken off and is tanned. Though I don't know much about the tanning process, it is probably something in that process that makes it stay stained.

Because the cows skin keeps growing and the stained pieces wear off in time where as when its your coat it has no way of repairing itself !m

You know this question has made my day! Its like the most real question I have seen since today, and its an interesting question, I dont know though why.
I guess its because they must release a certain oil or something? Good question :)
