AFRIKANERS
The breed was almost exterminated when huge numbers died of rinderpest or were destroyed during the South African Boer War.
The breed is typically red which can vary from light tan to deep cherry red. They have long lateral horns of a flesh-to-creamy white in colour with amber tips. The Afrikaner is well named the no-nonsense breed.
