No part of a cow goes unused.
Dairy cows become hamburger
and leather after they've been
bled for all their milk.
Steer become steak and leather.
A calf becomes veal and a softer
more expensive form of leather.
The bones from cows get mixed
with sugar to refine it and make it go
further. This why so many vegans
won't except "refined sugar".
Hope this helps

They are separate industries but the leather people buy the skins off the cows that were cut up for meat.

Though there are some rare exceptions, separate industries.

Most leathers are imported into the U.S.
