Just a list of a few of the many types of cows roaming around. And
there are a lot! Some of these breeds are described in the
Cow Facts section of this web site. The
Oklahoma
State University Cattle Page
has information about many more breeds, including a number of pictures.
For a list (compiled by John Pukite) of over 900 types of bovines visit
Cows of the World. (Links to
offsite pages open in a new window, except the book links below.)
There is information about the Chillingham Cattle at their
association
website. The
Randall Cattle have their own
registry website with more information.
