If they are so rare, why slaughter “Rare Breed” cattle for human consumption?
The Rare Breeds Society afforded Belted Galloway cattle Rare Breed status until October 2006, by which time the number of breeding females in the UK had risen to over 2,000 – good news, indeed Our supplying farmers register with the Galloway Cattle Society and the Belted Galloway Cattle Society (which administers the White Galloways, also) those calves born on to their land which display the required characteristics, for retention or sale to other breeders. Remember – Rare Breeds are only rare because people stopped eating them!
