They were Spanish longhorned cattle, which became known and named Texas Longhorn cattle, and were recognized as a breed.
The original home of most longhorn cattle in Texas was the area known as the Texas Hill Country. This region, characterized by its rugged terrain and abundant grasslands, provided an ideal environment for the cattle to thrive. Longhorns were developed from the Spanish cattle brought to the Americas and adapted well to the local conditions. Their hardiness and unique features made them well-suited to Texas ranching.
Texas Longhornd originated from the Criollo-type cattle of Spain. These cattle were shipped overseas with Christopher Columbus to the southern Americas to be (as was the plan) used as food (meat and milk, mainly) for the Spanish settlers.
Longhorn cattle were the major cattle breed in the southwest. Known for their distinctive horns and adaptability to the region's harsh conditions, they played a significant role in the cattle industry of the American Southwest.
the cattle drive
The longhorn cattle drive from Texas to Colorado was famously led by cattleman Charles Goodnight in the late 1800s. He was instrumental in establishing cattle trails and routes that facilitated the movement of cattle to markets in the north. Goodnight's efforts helped shape the cattle industry and contributed to the growth of ranching in the American West.
