Welsh Black
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the black breed of Welsh cattle. For the black type of Welsh sheep, see Black Welsh Mountain sheep.
The Welsh Black is a dual-purpose breed of cattle native to Wales.
It is used in the production of milk as well as beef.[citation needed] As the name suggests, the cattle are naturally black. They generally have white horns with black tips, but these may be removed, and there are also naturally hornless (polled) strains. Red individuals occur occasionally – red and other colours were more common in the past.
