Eastern Finncattle






Eastern Finncattle hard at work at the
nature preserve in Espoonlahti 5.7.2014.
The Eastern Finncattle cows were recognized
as a separate breed in the 1890s.

    Perhaps we wouldn't have to mow our 2 acres if we had cattle, they look so hard-working. The mother and calf are cute, the mother seems really long and low.

      Thank you, Hannah! At least you would have less to mow, but they might eat the bushes and the trees too. :-)
