Sudanese Fulani
Sudanese Fulani refers to a regional African cattle type associated with Fulani, or Fulbe, pastoral communities and the Sahelian cattle routes that extend into Sudan. It is usually treated as zebu-influenced domestic cattle rather than a show-standard breed: many animals have a hump, loose skin, long legs, and horns suited to long walking in hot country. Coat color is not tightly fixed; black, brown, grey, roan, brindle, blaze-faced, or pied cattle may appear according to herd history and local crossing.
These cattle are kept mainly as mobile range animals for milk, meat, calves, savings, and social exchange. Management is tied to seasonal grass, wells, crop residues, and movement away from drought or disease pressure. In settled herds, buyers should ask about temperament, cow fertility under sparse feed, disease history, and adaptation to local parasites rather than expecting a uniform pedigree package. Conservation interest centers on heat tolerance, mobility, and the pastoral knowledge connected to the animals.
