Ancient White Park Cattle

Ancient White Park Cattle

This is an ancient species of cattle, with only less than 2,000 remaining in the entire world. Originally from Britain, two specimen were shipped to Toronto in 1939 to secure the species in case Hitler was too successful in Europe. Now this year they expect about 550 cattle to be born in North America alone, 400 of the at B-Bar in Montana. Very interesting, I think!

That's my favorite cow shot ever. Nice!
PS I really like the way Varycon is very subtle with toners. A nice choice on your part
 
Thank you ladies and gentlemen... I thank Marianne especially for pointing out that this grass guzzler is in fact a cow and no bull... :smile: Saved me the trouble of breaking the harsh news. LOL
I did see some bulls also, but in a separate pasture. Gorgeous animals.
 
Nice legs!

I really enjoy this sort of photography, the print is great and the subject is unique. Thanks for sharing.
