Back to cows: They can be very inquisitive animals and aren't aggressive at all (unless you're with a dog or similar "predator" when there's young about). Generally you can identify the herd leader, they tend to be just ahead of the others, the one that the less confident animals will follow. They direct the group. Stand up to that one and they'll all back down when the leader does.
One book I read suggested punching the leader on the nose if they don't back down. I've never had to do more than walk towards them to get them to move though.
