Hmmn. I hope not, since if so the pun Mirka makes, makes no sense. :-)
At least one yiddish-english dictionary I used claimed it means “cow.” Maybe they’re wrong, though; I check with some other sources before I use “beheime” again. Thanks for pointing it out.

I think “beheime” means “beast”. As in Hebrew “behema”.

I think it’s close enough as to make no difference. In Hebrew, a ‘beheima’ is a domesticated beast, and a wild beast is a ‘chaiya’.
