From Africa, which breed is famous for huge horns and distinctively large body size?

• A. Watusi
• B. Beef Master
• C. Angus
• D. Hereford

Answer: (A)

Recognizing breed by origin and distinctive physical traits is the idea behind this item. The Watusi, an East African breed also known as Ankole-Watusi, is famous for its enormous, sweeping horns and a sturdy, imposing body. Those horns are the most recognizable feature, often spanning wide and arching over the shoulders, which gives the cattle a very distinctive silhouette. The breed’s size and horn development are well suited to the hot African environment, with the horns even helping with heat dissipation. While Angus and Hereford are European breeds and Beef Master is a United States crossbreed, neither is native to Africa nor known for horns of such dramatic size. So the best fit for an African breed with huge horns and a large body is the Watusi.
