Texas Longhorn

Bos primigenius

Description:

Very large black and white, spotted cow with long horns that curve upward. The last few images show how large the horns are and how they have to twist the cows head to get him out of the stall. This is a "tough, rangy animal with long legs and long horns extending up to seven feet." - Wikipedia

Habitat:

National Western Stock Show in Denver

Notes:

"Longhorn calves are very tough and can stand up sooner after birth than other breeds. Longhorn cattle can breed for a long time, well into their teens. There have been cows that have bred for up to thirty years.
