Corriente cattle are natural athletes. Their heritage of Spanish genetics and 500 years of evolution in the challenging ecology of Mexico have resulted in a strong, lean athletic body.
​
Since 1982, our association has succeeded in maintaining these genetics and further selected for the most desirable characteristics for team roping and steer wrestling.

The Corriente
Performance
Corrientes are raised primarily as sports cattle while preserving the natural attributes of these durable animals such as high fertility, early maturity, trouble-free calving, and foraging efficiency, as well as disease and parasite resistance.
​
This unique breed differs greatly in conformation, behavior, and hardiness from cattle raised only for meat. Most of the production problems experienced by today’s cattlemen are a result of increasing size and weight in order to fit the current commodity market. Corrientes remain untainted by the manipulative animal husbandry which has affected and weakened many domestic animals.
The Corriente is a small, agile, athletic animal with stamina, heavy horns, and a gentle disposition. These characteristics make the Corriente an ideal animal for team roping, bulldogging and an excellent choice for cutting and team penning.
