Angoni

Cattle

The Angoni cattle are found in the Eastern Province of Zambia and adjoining areas of Malawi between the Lungwa River in the west and Lake Malawi in the east spreading southwards reaching northwestern Mozambique. The colour of the Zambian Angoni varies considerably and may be red, brown, black, red or black and white, or brindle. Horns are short and thick and lateral rather than upright (as in the Malawi Zebu); hump and dewlap are well developed. Their size varies from medium to large, with heavy males weighing up to 730 kg. ref: agtr.ilri.org
