[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 3611"] As usual there are a lot of good responses to your question. One piece of the puzzle that has not been touched on very well is the manner in which the cattle are raised. Yes, genetics does play a part in how calm the animals will be but equally as important if not more important is how the animals are raised. If the animals were born on a huge range and there only contact with humans has been at branding and vaccinations they will associate humans with pain and will be flighty and "wild" to some extent no matter what breed they are. If, on the other hand, they have had frequent contact with humans both on foot and on horseback they will be much calmer. Just one more piece of the puzzle to keep in mind.
