Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge Long Horn Cattle
Description:
Photograph of five longhorn cattle grazing on a field located in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. The back of the photograph proclaims, "The government's only Long Horn cattle herd, the largest in the world, is found in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, at Lawton, Okla. These are the descendants of the great herds that gave fame and fortune to the "Trail Riders" of the old west. They are now practically museum pieces, the skull and horns often selling for hundreds of dollars."
