Since "kind of cows" could mean anything from "kind of breed" to gender, I'll give you what I think are used in steer Wrestling: Since the word "steer wrestling" seems self explanitory, I would assume that steers are used in steer wrestling. However, a little bird told me that heifers can also be used in this rodeo sport.

Now as for the Breeds, they would mainly use crosses or purebred Corriente and Texas Longhorn cattle.

Does beef that we eat come from male or female cows?

Both, but many cows are used as dairy animals so beef from young animals is more likely to come from bullocks. Beef from older animals is more likely to come from former dairy cows. There is no such thing as a male cow. All cows are female. A bull or a steer is what a cow mates with. From TexasDolly: If you mate a cow (or heifer) with a steer you're not going to have a lot of luck in the breeding department since a steer has been castrated. You live in NY right?


Are steer aggressive animals?

Steer are not aggressive animals. Steer are male cattle who used to be bulls, but were castrated at some point in their life, most likely early on while it was young. This is to prevent the animal to breed with any cows or heffers in the field, and to also make them unaggressive.


What is the difference between a bull and a steer?

A steer is castrated (or testicles have been surgically removed), a bull is not. Bulls look more masculine and tend to be more muscular than steers are, and are used for breeding heifers and cows to produce offspring, being calves. Steers tend to look like heifers or cows, without the udder, and are primarily used for meat production.

Are male cows called?

No: Male cows do not exist. Cows are ONLY female mature bovines that have had at least one or two calves. A steer is not a cow, it is a castrated male bovine (though it is often termed as a part of the colloquial word "cow," which is incorrect, and which can be understandably very confusing for those who are not familiar with terms involving Cows and Cattle). A bull is an intact male bovine used for breeding. So a so-called "male cow" can be either a bull or a steer, depending whether it has testicles or not.
