  • The Texas Longhorn the First Long-Horned Cattle Came to North America Between the Sixteenth and Eighteenth Centuries During
    The Texas Longhorn The first long-horned cattle came to North America between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries during the Spanish explorations, expeditions and religious missions. When Anglo-American pioneers traveled west in the early nineteenth century, they brought domesticated English cattle with them. American Indians raided cattle from both the Spanish and Anglo-Americans and gradually developed their own hybrid strains of cattle. With many cattle escaping from the open ranges, Spanish, English and hybrid cattle interbred. By the 1830’s, thousands of wild cattle ranged from the Rio Grande to the Nueces River. Exposed to the elements and relentlessly hunted by American Indians and colonists, cattle adapted or perished. They were forced to survive in the blazing sun and freezing winter, through dust storms and swamps. They could subsist on a diet of weeds and brush and live for days without water. From their Spanish ancestors, they inherited large, sweeping horns with twists at the end that allowed them to ward off coyotes and wolves. Colonists called cattle of the brush “wild cattle,” “mustang cattle” or “Spanish cattle.” It was not until the end of the Civil War that some range men would refer to “Texas cattle” or “Texas Longhorns.” Early Texas cowboys rustled cattle from Mexican ranches and captured feral cattle from the brush country. They stocked Texas ranges with these animals or trailed them through the Louisiana swamps to markets in New Orleans. Although the animals varied in their degree of wildness, skilled raiders could drive them in herds. After two or three long days of running, then trotting, then walking, they could be managed almost like domestic cattle.
