The natural habitat of Scottish Highland cattle is in rough hillside and natural wetland. The HIGHLAND COW preferes the habitat of woods and forests and represents the last of the true ecolological bovines. It has been demnonstrated that grazing Highland cattle can increase flora and faun by ten fold! They browse everything uniformally, where other breeds must eat only high quality forages to allow for their fast growth and increased mass. The result is fields of weeds, due to over grazing of single species.
