There are a wide variety of breeds found in Texas, and not just Texas Longhorns. Here's a list:
- Brangus
- Angus
- Red Angus
- Red Brangus
- Hereford

- Santa Gertrudis
- Beefmaster
- Droughtmaster
- Senepol
- Barzona
- Santa Cruz
- Brafords

Much of the breeds raised in Texas have to be heat and insect tolerant. You will find many of the Brahman-based breeds like Santa Gertrudis and Brangus are found all over Texas, where as breeds like Angus are only found in the northern areas of this state. Texas Longhorns are being raised in this state, but they are not nearly as common as the Brahmans and Brahman-based breeds.
