Behind we see the bulls are coming and in front of them three cows. They are crossing a channel and one can see how well the water is illustrated in the relief pattern covering the legs of the cows.
See the cow in the middle holding her head a bit high as she is mooing? Well that's exactly what she does, so look at the person who walk in front of her and I will explain why.
He is carrying something on his back, and that's the calf of the mooing cow. This was the technique used when one should get the cattle to move over channels as fast as possible, as sometimes there were crocodiles that got a good dinner if they were not quick enough.
