A COMMON MISCONCEPTION IS THAT A BEEFALO IS HALF COW, HALF BUFFALO. THOUGH THE ORIGINAL PRODUCERS DID HAVE TO CROSS THE TWO “BOVINAE,” BEEFALO TODAY ARE AN ADVANCED MIX OF
DOMESTICATED CATTLE AND 37.5% AMERICAN BISON.
THIS CROSS WAS CHOSEN SPECIFICALLY AS IT HAS BEEN SHOWN AS THE ‘SWEET SPOT OF THE GENETIC POOL,
ALLOWING ALL THE BEST QUALITIES OF BOTH ANIMALS TO BE PRESENT.
REGISTERED BEEFALO HERDS ARE A CONSISTENT
3/8 BISON, 5/8 DOMESTIC BOVINE HERITAGE.
ANY ANIMALS CONTAINING MORE BISON DNA ARE THEREFORE CONSIDERED CATTALO, WHICH DO NOT POSSESS THE SAME QUALITIES OR APPEARANCE OF THE USDA-RECOGNIZED BREED OF BEEFALO.
ACCORDING TO A UNIVERSITY STUDY THAT WAS PUBLISHED IN THE AMA JOURNAL, BEEFALO MEAT IS THE ONLY RED MEAT THAT HAS BEEN SHOWN TO HELP LOWER LDL CHOLESTEROL. WHEN HIGH-CHOLESTEROL MEN ATE BEEFALO MEAT RATHER THAN REGULAR BEEF DURING A PERIOD OF 30 DAYS, THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN LEVELS BY 15 POINTS. CWU TESTED THE FAT IN BEEFALO MEAT AND FOUND THAT IT HAD ONLY 1/3 THE PALMITIC ACID CONTENT, WHICH IS KNOWN TO INCREASE LDL. COMPARED TO BEEF, BEEFALO MEAT HAS UP TO FOUR TIMES LESS FAT AND SIX TIMES LESS CHOLESTEROLITIS LOWER IN CHOLESTEROL THAN CHICKEN, BUFFALO, AND MOST FISH.
WE WANTED FRESH ALL-NATURAL MEAT FOR US AND OUR ROTTWEILERS SO WHEN WE RESEARCHED, WE FOUND THAT BEEFALOS PRODUCED SOME OF THE BEST-TASTING AND HEALTHIEST MEAT IN THE WORLD. WE HAVE SOME THAT WE LOVE AS OUR OWN CHILDREN AND HAVE NAMED THEM, BUT THE BEEFALO PRODUCED ARE GRADED AND USED FOR MEAT TO EAT, SELL, AND FEED OURSELVES AND OUR ROTTWEILERS. SINCE WE HAVE BEEN BREEDING ROTTWEILERS FOR ALMOST 35 YEARS, WE DECIDED TO BREED FULL-BLOODED DNA-REGISTERED BEEFALOS.
