Well, I don't think she is cute, because she definitely has an underbite, but no one who raises cattle seems to care. It just affects her ability to graze efficiently, so she will not grow as fast after she is weaned.
It seems that what you define as an underbite is normal for the majority of calves that grow up and function just wonderfully.

What is the remedy for such a situation?
Do they not grow out of it?
Is it genetic?
How do you correct it?

Invisalign. I'd suggest braces, but we don't want the other calves making fun of him.

Has J Hoy ever seen a calf without an underbite? I get a chuckle out of him as he continually points out calf after calf with an underbite.
After being around cattle for over 60 years I have noticed that most are born with what might be called an underbite, if it were seen in an adult animal. Perhaps it better enables them to get the nipple. Very few still have it as adults. Don't worry about it.

That calf sure has some long ears! I think they're all cute at that age.
