That almost looks painful to have such huge things sticking out of your head...

I'd be afraid to breed such things, they look almost 'mutant'... I can hardly stand to look at them.. .much like those icky looking muscovey ducks.

They cross the watusies and use the off spring as bucking bulls. And some times full blooded ones to

donsgal, take your husband to the ozark animal paradise in Strafford, MO sometime. they have a herd their that tries to come through your car window to get any grain/treats you might have, horns and all. (ask me how I know! lol!) these cattle were very sweet, if persistant, from all the hand feedings from visitors.

The reason that I have never thought to look is that this cow (used in the generic), has the most incredible horns I have ever seen.

Dh says it is a longhorn. But I have googled Texas Longhorn and ain't nuthin' there looks ANYTHING like this cow. I am going to try to snap a cellphone pic the next time I see it up by the road.

I mean this thing look like it has TRAFFIC CONES stuck to it's forehead. They are these HUGE CONICAL monstrosities! Nothing like the bighorns that I have seen pictures of.

Photos to follow in a day or so.

Too late! Animal Paradise has closed, all of the animals are gone. Developers bought the land.

if closed then re-opened, I wonder where they got all the animals since they sold the other critters? I can't find any info on the internet or through the news-leader.
