Information about Texas Longhorns
"What is so unique about the Texas Longhorn?.. Simply this: The Texas Longhorn was fashioned entirely by nature right here in North America." Survivor of the Past - Bright Promise for the Future by Dr. Stewart H. Fowler, Phd.)
The Texas Longhorn is a breed of cattle known for high fertility, easy calving, disease and parasite resistance, hardiness, longevity, and the ability to utilize pasture more efficiently than most other cattle breeds.
According to the Texas Longhorn Breeders Association Web Site Longhorn meat offers a healthy alternative to America's diet because the meat is more lean than that obtained from traditional breeds of cattle. (Article, "Longhorn Beef in Healthy Diet," Heart Surgeon Claims.)
