Many farms and ranches were neglected during the civil war.
It is around 50,000
After the Civil War, settlers moved into Texas seeking new opportunities and land for farming and ranching, driven by the promise of economic prosperity. The Homestead Act and other incentives encouraged migration by offering land at low costs. Additionally, the expansive land and resources in Texas appealed to those looking to escape the devastation of the war and rebuild their lives. The state's growing economy and the potential for cattle ranching also attracted many to settle in the region.
The U.S. did not make any silver dollars from 1804 to 1835 inclusive. There has been a flood of counterfeit dollar coins on the market over the last couple of decades, some good, but many with significant goofs in date and/or design. If you have an "1834 dollar" it is one of the latter, I'm afraid.

It is estimated to be around 1.3 billion cattle in the world.
The Texas cattle industry had its origins from the Spanish culture in raising cattle and ranching. However, some practices of cattle ranching may have come from African cultures since many of the men who were involved in ranching and acting as cattle hands in many ranches in and around Texas were of African-American origin or descent.
Many, Many, Many cattle ranches. The state is known for its farming skills.
Many of the large cattle barons lived in the southern state of Texas. The rail lines were north of Texas and Oklahoma.
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.
Many of the large cattle barons lived in the south, many in the state of Texas. The railroads did not go that far south for many years so the cattle had to be driven north the 'old fashion way', by horse and rider. Once at their destination the cattle were sold and loaded into rail cars to be taken to other cities, usually in the east.

The herding of cattle from Texas to railroad centers to the north was called a cattle drive. Cattle drives took many months to complete. Some of the cowboys would drive the cattle to Kansas and not want to go back to the ranch after being paid. Then ranchers would have to hire more hands the next cattle drive season.
Texas longhorns were created in the 1800s when Spanish cattle and Anglo cattle were mixed to create a strong, long-horned cow that the Texans called by its horn, the Texas longhorn. Cattle is how many Texans got rich, for the demand for beef was high after the Civil War. Cattle were extremely cheap in Texas and expensive everywhere else, a perfect deal for Texans who wanted to sell for more but buy for less. Hope this helps! :)
Holstein-Friesian are the most popular breed of cattle found. Many farms keep these milk cows.
In the past, Texas Longhorns. Today, Brahmans, and Brahman-European beef breeds, Texas Longhorns, Herefords, etc.
