Dr. Ward's experiments and spirit summons have resulted in a tougher breed of cattle, practically immune to diseases and parasites, resulting in cows much larger and stronger than your average Longhorn. These cows are rangy and tough, with horns that average around six feet from tip to tip, but may grow up to eight feet or more. The animals are natural survivors and are capable of finding food, water, and even shelter in bad weather on their own.
