I think that they are indeed Watusi. Strange indeed, especially in New Jersey, the land of dairy cows. I believe those beasts usually provide sustenance by being bled. Cows are too valuable to eat. Not in New Jersey. The Maasai and Watutsi, and some Ethiopia tribes, bleed their cattle from the neck and mix the blood with milk. Early European travellers to Ethiopia, such as James Bruce, claimed that the Ethiopians, meaning the Amhara, cut slices from the beasts and ate them raw. They do indeed today eat raw beef (kitfo), but it's more like steak tartare - raw minced beef mixed with spices - and I believe they kill the animals first. Here are some nice pictures of cattle: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_awSIlZgh6Is/R4INigVFVFI/AKo/csHZ0nzTUTQ/s 1600/Africa+Salgado.jpg http://p4.focus.de/img/gen/f/e/HBfe0sgk_Pxgen_r_1100xA.jpg Looking at them, and thinking about the Euro, one wonders who has the correct definition of wealth.

Re: PESO: Can anyone help me identify these animals?
The horns look like an African breed, the coloring is similar to a Texas Longhorn. Could be a cross between the two. -p On 10/26/2011 7:22 PM, David J Brooks wrote: On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 4:40 PM, Daniel J.
