Scottish Highlander near the mirror hall Nijmegen.
The Scottish Highlander, also called Highland Cow, is a mostly reddish-brown cattle breed that originally comes from Scotland. They have long hair and long horns.
The Scottish Highlander is the original cattle from the western highlands of Scotland and the Hebrides. There was no inbreeding with other cattle breeds. In 1885 the first herdbook was established.
Until 1849 most Scottish Highlanders were black. The story goes that Queen Victoria visited the Scottish Highlands in the 1840s and expressed her preference for the red animals. She simply thought they were more beautiful. She gave the order to breed more red highlanders. Besides black and red, there are also blond varieties. An adult bull weighs 800 kilo and a cow 500 kilo. The height at the withers is 125 and 115 cm respectively. Scottish Highlanders can reach an age of eighteen years. In that time, a cow can give birth to approximately fifteen calves. The gestation period is about ten months. Cows have widely spaced, upward-pointing horns, while those of bulls are horizontal to the front. (Source: Wikipedia)
