\nYou see them by country roads; in dairies and grazing in the fields. \u00a0They all look the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThey’re just COWS<\/span><\/p>\n

\nBut I bet you haven’t seen some of the hardiest, strangest cattle in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nLet’s take a look:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nCattle in Africa have to be sturdy and heat-resistant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nAnd give milk as well as meat. The Ankole Watusi fills the bill perfectly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nI love Longhorns! \u00a0Did you know that there are English longhorns as well as Texas ones like the above? Below is an English longhorn:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nRecord holder for the longest horns in the world?\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nPoncho Via, a Texas Longhorn in Alabama, currently has horns 10 feet, 7 inches…and they’ll just keep getting longer!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a>
<\/span><\/div>\n
\nThen there’s the very shaggy Highland cow, below, which can now be found in Australia as well as in other climates much colder than Scotland.<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

\nAbove, the Schwarzenegger of all cattle, the Belgian Blue! It has double the muscle of other breeds.\u00a0 Belgian Blues weigh one ton… about 700 pounds more than most other breeds.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nThought to be descended from the extinct Aurochs, the Zebu, above, is essential in tropical countries for meat, milk, and as a draft animal. Zebu makes me think of the Veggie Tales song \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nMini-cattle? \u00a0Actually, these little guys are much cheaper and easier to raise than the big ones…\u00a0<\/span>kind of makes you want to put one or two in your backyard, doesn’t it?<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span>So which of all these amazing cattle is your favorite? \u00a0<\/span>
\n
<\/span>Me? I kind of lean toward the Belgian Blue… always\u00a0<\/span>hoping, of course, that he won’t lean back! \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
