Blosom, the 13-year-old Holstein Friesian bovine, has just entered the Guinness Record books as the world's tallest cow. The huge bovine, which is taller than 6ft 3in Premier League striker Emmanuel Adebayor, is the star attraction at owner Patty Hanson's farm in Orangeville, Illinois, US. Blosom is the pride of the farm, Patty told RRStar.com.
The Chianina is both the tallest and the heaviest breed of cattle. Mature bulls stand up to 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in), and castrated oxen may reach 2 m (6 ft 7 in). It is not unusual for bulls to exceed 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) in weight. Males standing over 1.51 m (4 ft 11 in) at 12 months are considered top-grade.
