Also known as Ankole longhorn, this is a breed of cattle originally native to Africa.
Its large, distinctive horns, that can reach up to 8 feet (2.4 m) from tip to tip, are used for defense and cooling by blood vesseled honeycombs.
Living in the savannas and open grasslands, their diet consists of grass and leaves.
The animal is sometimes known as Ankole or Watusi, and is a breed of Sanga cattle.
Ankoles are able to utilize poor quality forage and limited quantities of food and water. These survival abilities have allowed them as a breed to not only survive the centuries in Africa but to become established in Europe, South America, Australia, and North America.
