Angus cattle were first imported to the United States by George Grant in 1873. He brought the first registered Aberdeen Angus cattle from Scotland to Kansas, significantly contributing to the breed's establishment in America. This breed became popular for its high-quality beef and adaptability to various climates and environments.
Angus cattle were brought to America in the 1870s, primarily by ranchers seeking to improve beef quality. The first Angus cattle to arrive were imported from Scotland, where the breed originated. Over time, these cattle gained popularity due to their excellent meat quality, adaptability, and naturally polled (hornless) traits. This led to the establishment of Angus breeding programs across the United States, solidifying the breed's presence in American agriculture.
The Angus breed originated in Scotland, specifically in the northeastern region known as Angus, from which the breed gets its name. It was developed in the early 19th century by breeding naturally polled (hornless) cattle, primarily the native black cattle of the area. Angus cattle are known for their high-quality meat and adaptability, making them popular worldwide. The breed was first imported to the United States in the late 1800s.

It is not clear when Red Angus cattle where first imported to the US, but I believe they may have came around the same time the first black Angus came to America. It is recorded, though, that the first American herdbook were published in 1886 and 1888; at that time the colour of the animals was not recorded (nor considered significant), until 1917 came around when the American Angus Association decided to prohibit any red cattle from being registered into the AAA.
