Santa Cruz
 Santa
Cruz cattle represent over ten years of intense research and development
by the King Ranch aimed at creating a more market acceptable beef
animal that produced superior results as both a feeder and seedstock
animal in hot, humid, and
unfavorable environments. The
Santa Crus is a composite of ½ Santa
Gertrudis, ¼ Red Angus and ¼ Gelbvieh.
There are both polled and horned individuals.
In color, they range from a light red or honey to a Santa Gertrudis
cherry red. Mature weight in cows ranges from 1,100 - 1,200 pounds,
while bulls tip the scales from 1,800 - 2,000 pounds.
