Veal comes from calves, which are young cows. Lambs are young sheep, and mutton comes from older sheep.

It's baby cow, and one of the most reprehensible finished meats ever devised for the dinner table.
My dad would agree - and he was a cattle rancher.

I had the most wonderful veal chop at El Ceppo in Rome over New Year's. Absolutely sublime. Restaurant is not touristy, and is a place where Romans take their out of town guests to dinner.
