From Scotland, home of champions of the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" competition, comes this quite old glass negative contact print of the Highland breed, a product of Mother Nature and natural selection without help from man. So, of course, it is disease resistant, requires little special feed or care, is mild tempered and can survive where other "man made" breeds will die.
It was used by American breeders early on to improve their stock and is found both as a pure breed and as the foundation of many other breeds worldwide. The Highland is the oldest registered cattle breed (1884).
All cattle descend from the Aurochs which have been around since way before early man decided to paint their portraits on the walls of caves. Tasty, too, so I hear!
