Chisholm
Cattle trails began to emerge in the mid-19th century, particularly during the 1860s to the 1880s, as cattle ranchers sought new markets for their livestock. The most famous of these trails, such as the Chisholm Trail, were established to transport cattle from Texas to railheads in Kansas and other states. This period marked the rise of the cattle drive as a significant economic activity in the American West.
Cattle trails were commonly found in the 19th century in the western United States, particularly in states like Texas, Kansas, and Nebraska. These trails were used to drive cattle from ranches to railheads for transportation to markets. Many of these historic cattle trails have since been incorporated into modern roads and highways.

Cattle.
Cattle trails tended to begin in south Texas because this region provided ample grazing lands and mild climate for cattle to thrive. Additionally, cattle could be easily transported by ship to south Texas from Mexico, where many of the cattle originated. The expansive open terrain in south Texas also allowed for the efficient movement of large herds of cattle towards the Northern markets.
