Meet the Texas Longhorn - Icon of the Wild West
The Texas Longhorn is one of the most famous cattle breeds of the American Wild West and a true symbol of cowboys and the prairie. The breed became popular during the 1870s when cowboys moved the cows across the vast Great Plains.
What makes the Texas Longhorn unique are their impressive horns, which can stretch over three meters from tip to tip, and their characteristic color variations. Seeing these majestic animals up close gives a sense of the historic Wild West and shows why the breed is so iconic. At High Chaparral in the Texas area, the whole family can be mesmerized by their size, strength and calm temperament - a perfect break for kids and adults alike in the midst of adventure.
