Little Cow

So, I got to thinking whilst I was attending to the poop created by the horses and one of the lovely beasties created a rather odoriferous emission, (noisy hind gut fermenters). Are cattle able to toot? It occured to me that since cattle have a quite different digestive tract, maybe they don't *fluff* at all.
Cows ferment their food in the stomachs, or foregut, and release such gases by belching, do they not? I don't recall ever hearing or smelling any such emissions from the cows, (though I usually place myself somewhere in between the horns and the rump). Now, don't get me wrong, they can create a stink with their burping, but can they, wonderous ruminants that they are, even pass gas? Or, is it possible, but just not as common as with horses, dogs, (and husbands)?
