Because if it showed every extinct animal in the history of the universe it would be longer than the movie.
Ofcourse. But I find the cow being extinct much more interesting than the dodo. If you choose a language extinct and featured in Futurama, would you choose French or Latin? A lost city, Atlanta or Lemuria?

I never meant that they forgot
I know I was saying that. I was just saying that because it wasnt a big deal the writers may have forgot about it or didnt think it was important to include. The joke one that did get into the movie was dumbed down and wasnt funny and shouldnt have been there and cow would have been better than that (but anything would be) but its far from being a big deal that the cow wasnt there. Anyway this is hardly worthy of its own thread, what do you want people to say? "Yes we agree where was the cow?" Alright for a post but I certainly dont think its worthy of its own thread.

I cry pardon I didn't realise you couldn't use the internet correctly please direct me to the "server-for-people-who-deserve-internet-access" server. I beg of you sir im ever so confussed in this strange place. You could have put it in the ITWGY goof thread or the general goof thread. Also i was only trying to help you, you're only here a couple of days. No need to be such a dick.

Okay then. I'll just start reporting to the mods instead.
As for the thread's subject: The Encyclopod ate the cow because beef is the most delicious substance in the Universe.
...why I hate being vegetarian!  I really loved the cow thing when it was mentioned in A Fishful of Dollars... it's barely even a joke, but I kept laughing for minutes. That's probably why it immediatley struck me when I saw Yonder, and why I was so disappointed. And I love how Fry doesn't even care the cow being extinct, but he totally rages about the anschovy (spelling?).

I suspect that they were more concerned with not needlessly confusing people who didn't know (or didn't remember) that cows were supposed to be extinct than they were with pleasing those who did know.

But there are constant callbacks throughout the series - in my less geeky days I was often confused. Not to mention all the geek jokes.

Okay, I've changed my mind. The writers probably just forgot about cows being extinct. (How many time did it come up? I can only remember one comment by Amy.)

They probably just forgot about it after Amy's comment in A Fishful Of Dollars (i.e. it was a throwaway joke)

I suppose its also implied by the fact that buggalo are now the animal which get milked and farmed in herds.
