Pulmonary Hypoplasia with Anasarca

This is a lethal genetic disorder that occurs in breeds like Simmental, Shorthorn, Maine Anjou and even in crossbred cattle. In laymen's terms, it means poorly formed, very small longs and excess retinal fluid, respectively. A calf that is born with PHA is very often born dead, or if born alive it dies shortly after.

How did the Black Angus become a breed?

From the An Sci OkState University Breeds of Livestock site on Angus cattle:Origin"There are three distinct and well-defined breeds of polled cattle in the United Kingdom. These breeds are the Aberdeen-Angus, the Galloway, and the red polled Norfolk and Suffolk breed that is found in England. Polled cattle apparently existed in Scotland before recorded history because the likeness of such cattle is found in prehistoric carvings of Aberdeen and Angus. Historians state that there were hornless cattle in Siberia centuries earlier. A hornless race of cattle was depicted in Egypt by sculptors and painters of that ancient civilization. Some historians feel that the Aberdeen-Angus breed and the other Scottish breeds sprang from the aboriginal cattle of the country and that the breeds as we find them today are indigenous to the districts in which they are still found."Early Scottish Cattle. Although little is known about the early origin of the cattle that later became known as the Aberdeen-Angus breed, it is thought that the improvement of the original stock found in the area began in the last half of the 18th century. The cattle found in northern Scotland were not of uniform color, and many of the cattle of the early days had varied color markings or broken color patterns. Many of the cattle were polled, but some few had horns. The characteristics we commonly call polled was often referred to in the old Scottish writings by the terms of 'humble,' 'doddies,' 'humlies,' or 'homyl.'"In the link below, is a more in-depth look at the history of how the Angus cattle became a breed.


What is scientific of cattle humplees?

Cattle humpless, or "humpless" cattle, typically refer to breeds that lack the pronounced hump found in zebu cattle (Bos indicus) and are instead from Bos taurus lineages. This absence of a hump is a result of genetic differences and adaptations to their environments. Humpless cattle are often more suited to temperate climates and are commonly raised for beef and dairy production. The genetic traits influencing hump formation also reflect the cattle's adaptation to varying conditions, such as heat tolerance and resistance to disease.
