The earliest known type of wild cattle, <i>Bos acutifrons </i>comes from a part of a fossil found in India (Payne 1970). The wild cattle then developed into to streams: the aurochs (<i>Bos primigenius</i>) that inhabited the forests of Asia, North Africa and Europe; and the urus (<i>Bos namadicus</i>) found in India and other parts of Asia. Most views expressed on the origin of the cattle focus on the auroch as the foundation of most of the cattle species and breeds developed in the world. The auroch, although an ancient cattle type, has survived into historical memory as the last recorded animal was killed in a Polish forest in the seventeenth century. They were large animals with enormous horns, the latter a characteristic found in modern cattle species.</span></p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Very little is known of the origin of <i>Bos</i> (<i>Bibos</i>) type cattle in Southeast Asia. The geographical distribution of Bos (Bibos) types of cattle suggests that the centre of domestication was Indo-China and Malaysia, later spreading to Bali. The other centre of domestication was probably Assam-Burma and led to the development of the gayal. Indonesia probably became the centre of Bali cattle domestication some ten to five thousand years ago. The process of domestication probably started in prehistoric times on Bali and Java. There are two types of Bali cattle in Indonesia, a domestic type, called Bali cattle and a wild type named banteng. There are not many wild bantengs left in Indonesia. They are now mainly found in the national parks such as Ujung Kulon and Baluran.</span></p><h3><b style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The uniqueness of Bali cattle</b></h3><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><b></b>Bali cattle are different from all other species of cattle as results of their origin and evolution. They will crossbreed with European cattle, Bos Taurus, but the male offspring as reported by Jellinek et al. (1980), is usually infertile. Bali cattle do have some distinct characteristics which have made them the cattle breed of choice in many parts of Indonesia. Difference between Bali cattle and Bos Taurus and Bos indicus may influence their responses to physiological and pathological events such Jembrana diseaseand may explain the variation seen in the susceptibility observed in the field. Some of the unique differences of Bali cattle from other cattle which make them valuable assets in Indonesia are:</span></p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span></p><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Size</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Smaller than Zebu and European cattle</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Colour</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Strickingly uniform markings</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Behaviour</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Timid and can become wild readily</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Reproduction</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">High conception rates</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Lactation</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Ability to stop lactating and survive a bad dry season</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Feed utilization</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Better able to utilize low quality feed base</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Heat tolerance</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Better heat tolerance than buffalo and other cattle</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Water turnover</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Lower water turnover than Bos Taurus</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Meat quality</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Marked fat deposition sites and limited fat in muscle mass</span></p></td></tr><tr><td width="168" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Disease pattern</span></p></td><td width="264" valign="top"><p><span style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Stated to be resistant to external and internal parasites except liver fluke,<i>Fasciola gigantica</i>.
