Pasturina cattle were developed in Tuscany (Italy) by crossbreeding and successive crosses between
Maremmana and Chianina breeds.
It was
extinguished because those breeding areas had been abandoned. Recently the
above mentioned crossbreeding has been restored and there are some heads that
in any case are not to be considered as a breed but simply a crossbreed between
Maremmana and Chianina.
The heads have lyre shaped horns, white coat
shading to grey, quite short strong limbs, dark skin. They are mainly apt to
labor.
