Tudanca cattle

[6] In the past it was a draught breed, much used for transport of goods to and from the ports of the Cantabrian coast;[7]: 161  it is now reared for meat,[8]: 268  but is still used in traditional sport of arrastre de piedra, or "stone-dragging".

Tudanca bulls often carry long curly hair on their front head, which is a feature also described for the aurochs.

José María de Cossío describes the breed as "agile, strong, frugal and hardy".

The efforts of many breeders and the lately recognized quality of its superb meat[6] have stopped declining and livestock grows back.

[9] Tudancas are used by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Biologischer Umweltschutz in Soest, Germany, in a semi-feral state in grazing projects to retain an open landscape with its biodiversity.
