Battle of the queens

Article Abstract:

Cowfighting is a traditional spectator sport in the Swiss canton of Valais. The cattle used in cowfighting belong to the Herens stock, a cattle breed known for its superior milk, meat and fighting spirit. The cowfight festivals, which start in March and ends in October, are arranged as regional contests. The cows fight because of their innate need to establish a hierarchy in their herds.
