Cattle's body shape and joint articulation carry significant information about their well-being. Building a large dataset of any animals' 3D scans is a challenging task. However, such a dataset is required for training deep learning algorithms for 3D body pose estimation. In this work, we investigate how such a dataset can be constructed for cattle from a single 3D model animated by a digital artist. Further, we reduce the sim2real gap between the virtual dataset and real scans of animals by augmenting the shape of the 3D model to cover the range of possible body shapes. The generated dataset is tested on semantic keypoints detection with an encoder-decoder architecture.
