Scottish Highland Cows

THE HISTORY OF SCOTTISH HIGHLAND COWS

WHERE IT BEGAN

Back in the 1800s, they became extremely popular as a meat source, and they were frequently stolen because of how much money you could make by bringing a cow to the market for harvesting.

A NOTE ON THEIR COAT

They have a thick undercoat that insulates them from cold temperatures and an oily outer coat that gives them their cute, furry appearance.

DO HIGHLAND COWS MAKE GOOD PETS?

If your home is zoned for livestock and you have 1 1/2 to 2 acres available, then mini Highland cows make great pets. They are generally gentle and calm.

1) MEAT

WHAT ARE HIGHLAND COWS AND MINI HIGHLAND COWS USED FOR?

Highland beef is considered high quality but lower in cholesterol, making it more comparable with other lean meats, such as chicken or fish.

2) MILK

Highland cows are a very docile breed. That makes them perfect for family milk cows! They produce about 2-3 gallons of milk a day; enough for a homestead but not the most ideal breed for a dairy farm.

WHERE TO FIND SCOTTISH HIGHLAND COWS ON YOUR TRAVELS

North Scotland — the original home of Highland cows — boasts stunning landscapes and flowing farms.
