Sourced from the SCP entry footnotes: “Kорова” Literally "cow" but can also refer to a clumsy individual. In the Russian Gulag system (where it is believed that GoI-0432 first developed), it referred to someone brought to a prison break with the intention of cannibalizing them in order to survive the Siberian wilderness. Based on GoI-0432's history and reputation, it is believed that the intended meaning was the latter.
