Highland cattle are known for their long, shaggy coats that help the hairy cows cope with the harsh conditions of the Scottish Highlands. Highland cattle inhabit areas of Scotland close to the Arctic Circle, which means Highland cattle have adapted to withstand the most uncompromising conditions. Highlanders are originally from Scotland. Highland cattle are now found in Europe, North America and Australia, where Highland cattle are all commonly kept for their meat, but some people also use the long hair of Highland cattle.
