Royal Highland Show – Cattle Champions
That’s the Royal Highland over for another year, and once again we’ve had the pleasure of photographing some of the best stock in the UK. Pictured above are the Fraser family from Idvies, with their inter-breed beef champion, the Aberdeen-Angus bull, Shadwell Black Broughton K485.
Below are all the official beef and dairy breed champion photographs – click on the animal’s name to view its pedigree.
