These are big fast animals which likely require a large space to swim around, much more than a cow. This makes "farms" difficult. Speaking of which, the wild ancestor of today's cows (the aurox) was hunted to extinction.

The big ones are already largely ranched. It’s the breeding that isn’t happening
It's oddly similar to humans. When they are ranched in cities, their birth rates collapse. It’s the breeding that isn’t happening. Something about limited space dissuades us animals from procreation.
