Highlander - Highland Cow
Highlander - Highland Cow
Share
The Highland (Scottish Gaelic: Bò Ghàidhealach; Scots: Hielan coo) is a Scottish breed of rustic cattle. It originated in the Scottish Highlands and the Outer Hebrides islands of Scotland and has long horns and a long shaggy coat. It is a hardy breed, bred to withstand the intemperate conditions in the region. The first herd-book dates from 1885; two types – a smaller island type, usually black, and a larger mainland type, usually dun – were registered as a single breed. It is reared primarily for beef, and has been exported to several other countries.
This cow has a marvellous tan shaggy coat and picks up a few other colours. Its large horns reflect warm colours of magenta and blue, the same colours are scattered amongst its shaggy coat. Licking its snout, drool drips from its mouth. It's a very real moment in time and a classic cow pose.
The background does have a little bit of glare in the photo.
