Best Answer

Most do not. There are many breeds of cattle that do not nor cannot resist the heat of the sun without succumbing to it. Black-coloured thin-hided cattle are more apt to become heat stressed than those who are lighter coloured and/or have thicker hides. Angus cattle are less adapted to the southern USA, for example, than other breeds like Herefords, Gelbvieh or Brahman.
