About Campbell Island CattleCampbell Island


Campbell Island Cattle, as you would expect, are from Campbell Island. Campell Island is a subantarctic island that lies over 600 kilometers south of mainland New Zealand. They were first introduced to Campbell Island for the sustenance of any shipwreck survivors who happened to come ashore there.

Although there is a report of “an attempt at agriculture which failed in 1856” the veracity of this is in doubt. However, there are reliable records of pigs, guinea fowl, and geese being liberated in 1865, and goats and pigs were released there in 1868. Sheep were introduced by a French scientific expedition which stayed there for almost four months at the end of 1874, and although the fate of the other early introductions is u ...

About Canchim CattleCanchim

About Caracu are Brazilian CattleCaracu are Brazilian


Caracu are Brazilian cattle raised for both milk and meat production. They are known for their hardiness, adaptability, and excellent maternal ability. They are mainly used as a cross to beef cattle.

About Chiangus CattleChiangus
