Barrosã cattle breed is native of Portugal. It is known mainly for its big distinctive horns, which can grow well over 100 cm in length. Ancestral inhabitants of the highest lands of northern Portugal, these animals graze freely on traditional pastures and marshes in conditions that are ideal for their welfare. The cattle enjoy a purity of nature that is characteristic of these places, contributing greatly to preservation and biodiversity of the landscape as well as to the rural economic sustainability.

Wolves are their natural ennemy and can attack an isolated cow. It is one of the problems the breeders have. To protect them they use Castro Laboreiro dogs, a local dog breed.
