*** About Texas Longhorn: The Texas Longhorn is a breed of cattle known for its characteristic long, curved horns which can extend to over 7 feet. This breed was instrumental in the development of the American West. Longhorns are descendants of the first cattle in the New World, brought by Christopher Columbus and the Spanish colonists. They became feral and were rounded up by cowboys in the late 19th century to help feed a growing nation. Known for their intelligence, adaptability, and hardiness, they can thrive in arid environments where other breeds might fail. These traits make them not only a symbol of Texan culture but also a favored subject in Western American art.
