Brahman
Brahman are easily identified by the hump on their back and long floppy ears. The most common colors are solid gray or solid red. The Brahman breed originated from Bos indicus cattle originally brought from India
Brahman have loose saggy skin with sweat glands and the ability to sweat freely through the pores of the skin, which contributes materially to their heat tolerance. They can walk long distances to water and these cattle thrive where other types of cattle, at best, merely survive.
