Marinhoa Cow Bos taurus Bovidae
The name of this native bovine breed derives from its region of origin, “Marinha,” located along the coast of the district of Aveiro. These are long, broad and powerful animals that feed on pasture ground, accompanied by straw, legumes and cereals. Due to their docility and adaptability, they have been used for animal traction in activities such as rice cultivation and artisanal fishing, in particular for retrieving fishing nets.
