[QUOTE="50/50Farms, post: 1811479, member: 42731"] Most of the longhorns today still aren't show cattle, but you call it what you will. Their conformation has actually probably increased in beef utility since the 1800s simply because they now have a selection mechanism that isn't simply "this one is weak so it will die in the winter" No, they certainly aren't what we call beef cattle in the westernized world where the Midwestern model rules the market, but if you knock one in the head and shuck the hide, that is still what it is made of.
