What type of ox/cattle was in the movie Braveheart?
In the scene where the farmers are coming back from fighting some of the English in the beginning of the movie when William Wallace was a young boy, there are some strange, different looking cattle/ox that are pulling a wagon with Williams father and brother’s body…. the horns almost make like a circle.
I haven’t seen the movie in awhile but most likely they were English Longhorns. Their horns form almost a C-shape.

The English Longhorn originated in northwest and central England and Ireland.

“I was watching Braveheart last night with the girlfriend and saw these English Longhorns pulling William Wallace’s dead dad and brother on a cart. Just thought I would share!”
