This breed descended from cattle brought by Spanish explorers in the late 1400s and early 1500s. Known for their diverse coloring and hardy nature, Longhorns are adapted to the harsh environmental conditions of the American Southwest. They played a crucial role in the development of the region, particularly in the cattle drives of the late 19th century that helped to shape the economy and folklore of Texas and the broader American West.
