Best Answer

They're cattle, so Bos taurus. (Some kinds of "cattle" are actually zebu, Bos indicus, or taurus/indicus hybrids, but Angus are pure taurus.)

Also, since you specifically mentioned "black" Angus: the only real difference between black and red Angus cattle is one gene for color. Black Angus have been specifically bred to eliminate the recessive gene that causes redness, and red Angus have been bred specifically FOR that gene. The original Angus breed from Scotland could be either black or red.
