30 "Cows come this far and I have seen them three times and have eaten of them and I think they are about the size of those of Spain. They have small horns, like Moorish cattle, and very long hair, wooly like a rug. Some are dark brown and others black and in my opinion they have better and richer flesh than those from here [Spain?]. From those that are not as large the Indians make robes to cover themselves and from the large ones they make shoes and round shields.” -Cabeza de Vaca
