Kangaroos 🦘 TIL that despite having herbivorous diets similar to cattle, which release large quantities of digestive methane through exhaling and burping, kangaroos release virtually none; the hydrogen byproduct is converted into acetate instead, then used to provide further energy

Cows also produce dung and urine that is antiseptic. It's used in vedic medicine. The stool of a cow is not filthy.
The methane produced from factory farming and feed lots is quite different but the investigation into this is more about politics and Fiat currency extraction than environmental health.
