By deer-like I mean those representations where the head / face is more narrow, particularly around the nostrils. Some faces just look like cows, others don't.
As far as bovine genitalia in medieval illustrations, absence is fairly common. Then there are the other options. Anatomically reasonable is one. Anatomically incorrect (heraldically pizzled) is another. However, there is a lot of variation, from an almost imperceptible, hair-like, white line to - well - you'll have to see for yourselves.
