What is a Brown Swiss species?
Brown Swiss is not a species. All cattle, regardless of breed, are generally and collectively known as the Bos primigeniusspecies. The B. primigenius species contains two subsecies: B. p. taurus and B. p. indicus. The former is of the Temperate or European-type cattle, and the latter of the Africa-Asiatic/Zebu/Tropical-type cattle. Because the Brown Swiss is a part of the Bos primigenius taurus species, which are the European-type cattle, it in itself is not a separate species, but rather a breed of this species.
