Ankole Longhorn cattle. In Uganda, they are an ancient, indigenous breed, famous for their enormous, majestic horns, which can measure up to 2.4 meters from tip to tip and serve for cooling and defense. These robust animals are adapted to arid conditions, culturally valuable to tribes such as the Bahima, and prized for their milk, meat, and as a status symbol.
