Surely any animal with a thick skin can produce a 'leather' - like kid goats produce the leather for kid gloves. Different quality for different purposes. I was just talking with a class of schoolchildren today about the differences between deer hide and buffalo hide. I'm still pretty sure that plenty of leather comes from cows.
