Charolais Bull
Charolais cows
'Charolais cattle' (pronounced shä'rə-lā') are a beef breed of cattle (''Bos taurus'') which originated in Charolais, around Charolles, in France. They are raised for their meat and are known for their composite qualities when crossed with other breeds, most notably Angus and Hereford cattle. This breed has been quite popular in the Top End of Australia where they are more adaptable to the harsh weather conditions. The coat is almost pure white. The Australian and Canadian breed standards also recognise cattle possessing a light red colour called 'Red Factor' Charolais. The term ''Charbray'' refers to the offspring of Charolais crossed with Brahmans and is recognised as a breed in its own right.
