The term "polled" refers to cattle that naturally lack horns. In these animals, the genetic trait for hornlessness is inherited, meaning they do not develop horns as part of their anatomy. Polled cattle are often bred selectively for this trait, as it can reduce the risk of injury to other animals and handlers. This trait is common in several breeds, including the Polled Hereford and some strains of Angus.
