Yes it is! The Brahman is the only breed in North America that has a rate of maturity longer than any other breed, like that of Angus, Simmentals or Holsteins.
Gestation periods for different breeds of dogs only vary slightly. The average gestation period for dogs is nine to ten weeks.
Fecundity is the ability to have more than one offspring.
The Brahman breed was created in Texas from crossing three B. indicus Indian breeds (Nellore, Gyr, and Guzerat) that were imported to America together to create the American Brahman.Many people state that the Brahman is actually an Indian breed from India, but the problem with this statement is that it assumes that the Brahman breed itself was created in and originated from India, which it isn't and it is. The Brahman breed was created in the United States from the three main Indian breeds of cattle mentioned above. This makes it an American breed, not an Indian breed.Please see the related link below.
Yes cross breeds live longer than pure breeds.
Not always, but in general, the larger the animal, the longer the gestation period.
He didn't invent cattle. Cattle have been around for far longer than Dr. Lecky has. He simply developed four breeds for his country, Jamaica: Jamaican Hope, Jamaican Red, Jamaican Black and Jamaican Brahman.
yes it does. the larger the mammal the longer its gestation period :)
The average goat has a gestational period of 150 days, while the average dog's gestation period is 63 days. So, a goat's gestation period is on the average of 87 days longer than that of a dog.
In general, larger mammals have longer gestation periods. The African Bush Elephant has the longest gestation period at 22 months. Placental mammals have longer gestation periods than marsupials. Some small marsupials have gestation periods of less than two weeks.
Bovine kidneys are larger and have a smooth surface, while sheep kidneys are smaller and have a lobulated surface. Bovine kidneys have longer renal papillae compared to sheep kidneys. Sheep kidneys have a more triangular shape compared to the more elongated shape of bovine kidneys.
The average gestation period of a sheep is 147 days, but it can range from 138 to 159. There are breed differences in gestation length, so breeds that mature earlier will have shorter pregnancies than later maturing breeds. If the ewe is pregnant with more than one lamb, they will also tend to have a shorter pregnancy. Male lambs and heavier lambs also tend to be carried longer than smaller, female lambs.
