Real-Life Alp Cattle:
Alpine cattle, a breed renowned for its adaptability to mountainous and alpine environments. Typically, calves are born after a gestation period of around 9 months and weigh between 30 to 40 kilograms (66 to 88 pounds) at birth. They have a sturdy build and are covered with a short, dense coat that provides insulation in colder climates.
Alpine cattle are known for their hardiness, with calves inheriting this trait, making them resilient to varying weather conditions and rugged terrains. They are primarily raised for their high-quality milk, which is used to produce various dairy products, including cheese. Calves are usually fed their mother's milk for the first few months and gradually transition to solid feed, such as hay and grains, as they grow.
