Steve, I have an opportunity to get a small highlander cow with her a calf for a good price. Part of the pasture I was going to use has some small fruit trees and I am afraid they will eat them. Should I be concerned? Also the cow is not very tame, would she become easy to handle with time? How small is your pasture and do you provide all your own feed or do import some? They would probably be my first choice if we don't go with a dairy breed and can work the fruit tree thing out.
