I lost my Cow because of wolf and I just wonder,
what if I lost all my cows and I don't have anywhere to buy one anymore?

You would have been a rich man to buy all the cows in the game.  :D

But I don't think they respawn.  At least I've noticed that dogs don't respawn.  If I buy all the animals in a given village, that village never gets anymore even though they have an empty pen.  Maybe I haven't played long enough with one character.  But I've seen harvests come and go with no animal respawns.

That might change with dogs though if Sami is working on dogs in villages now.

As caius said, village populations don't respawn (and that includes both the human and animal population), with the exception of the addition of new people to fill the role of remote quests targets.

I robbed some foreign traders and contributed to local society! :D

That's a bad news. I worry that village will empty someday.
