John Hansen, Scottish Highland cattle, Glendale, UT, in Garfield County and the St. George area. He has been raising this hardy mountain breed for more than a decade and holds membership in the American Highland Cattle Association. All herds undergo routine health screening and genetic evaluation to support long-term well-being and breed standards.

Animals graze on rotational pastures enriched by native grasses and receive daily interaction to develop calm temperaments and ease handling. Calving takes place in a comfortable barn where calves stay with dams for eight weeks, fostering strong maternal bonds and consistent growth. The farm is family operated and emphasizes sustainable practices with timber-framed shelters and hay harvested from adjacent valleys.

A recent review notes the cattle’s gentle disposition and uniform build, making them suitable for small-scale producers and homesteads. Offspring sport the breed’s characteristic thick coat and adapt readily to shifting temperatures typical of mountain environments.
