Highlanders
Boot Strap Farms is in the processes of bringing Highlander cattle to our farm. The Highlander cow is an ancient Scottish breed of beef cattle with long horns and long wavy pelts. Highlands are known as a hardy breed due to the rugged nature of their native Scottish Highlands, with high rainfall and strong winds. They both graze and browse and eat plants many other cattle avoid. The meat tends to be leaner than most beef, as highlands get most of their insulation from their thick shaggy hair rather than subcutaneous fat. The coat also makes them a good breed for cold Northern climates.
