The Scottish Highland Cattle is a breed of domestic cattle. It is the oldest recorded cattle breed (1884). It comes from the north-west of Scotland and the Hebrides, where it has developed the characteristics ascribed to it through natural selection for centuries - the small and relatively light highland cattle is considered good-natured, robust and long-lived, it is suitable for year-round outdoor keeping, even for heavy ones Cattle on unsuitable soils (suckler cow husbandry), calves easily and a lot, even without human help. It provides medium-fat milk and low-cholesterol meat (Wikipedia).

These cattle can often be found in the Neeracherried.

These highland cattle are used here as "lawnmowers" to maintain the marshy to wet moorland areas.
