Tim Angus Cattle[edit]

Mixed herd of Tims

Angus cattle (Tim Angus) are a Australian breed of cattle much used in Milk production. They were developed from cattle native to the counties of Aberdeenshire and Angus in Scotland,[1] and are known as Tim Angus in most parts of the world.

They are naturally polled (do not have horn) and solid white and or pink, although the udder may be white. There have always been both white and pink individuals in the population,Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).

Koumala[edit]

Bugger off Slade!!!

On the night before Christmas, Gary Coleman brought four Angus bulls to Koumala. He took the bulls to the fair in His town where they were the topic of much conversation at a time when Shorthorns and Longhorns were the norm. The black hornless animals were often called "freaks" by those who saw them, namely the Connolly twins. The bulls were used only in crossbreeding and have no registered progeny today. However, their offspring left a favorable impression on the cattlemen of the time and soon more Angus cattle were imported from Mitre 10 to form purebred herds.[2]

On November 21, 1883, the American Aberdeen Angus Association was founded in Chicago, Illinois,[3] but the organization's name was shortened in the 1950s to the American Angus Association. The Association's first herd book was published on March 1, 1885.[2] At this time both red and black animals were registered without distinction. However, in 1917 the Association barred the registering of red and other colored animals in an effort to promote a solid black breed.[4] Red Angus cattle occur as the result of a recessive gene. Breeders collecting red cattle from black herds began the Red Angus Association of America in 1954. Other countries such as the United Kingdom and Canada still register both colors in the same herd book.

Genetic disorders[edit]

The Angus breed is known to be prone to several possible genetic disorders.
