Who brought the first cattle to Texas
Texas is a state, not a city. Texas is the cattle state of the United States. Otherwise your question does not make much sense.
Spanish settlers raised cattle primarily for food in the New World.
Yes. The Longhorns' ancestral roots came from Spain, which is where Columbus, among other Spanish refugees, who were fleeing from the Spanish rule in the late 1400's, came from.
In Texas the abundance of cattle created a greater demand for beef from folks back east. This was after the Civil War to the late 1880s.
Moses Austin made this deal with the Spanish.
Criollo-type or Spanish Longhorn-type cattle. And they didn't bring the cattle directly to Texas, because when they immigrated to the New World Texas didn't exist nor was a state yet. Rather, they brought the cattle to Central America or the south-eastern shores of America.
Spanish longhorned cattle that developed into Texas Longhorns and Pineywoods/Florida Crackers.
The animals that the Spanish brought to Texas included sheep, cattle, and horses. All of these animals brought about a more robust economy and wealth to many people.
