Valued at over $4 million, the Brazilian Nelore cow dominates Brazil’s lucrative beef industry. An imposing white cow with a distinctive hump on her back and flaps of “dewlap” skin flowing from her neck like a fashionable scarf set a record at auction last June in Arandú, Brazil. The record of the world’s most expensive cow ever sold ($4.8 million).
This cow is a purely perfect specimen of the Nelore breed, which is kind of hard to find. It’s highly valued because of genetically desired features such as heat endurance and resistance to parasite illnesses.
Also, the Nelore breed has an edge over other beef cattle breeds in terms of hardiness. Calves are awake, with active behaviour, standing up and feeding immediately.

Brazilian Nelore cows are a breed of cattle that came from Ongole cattle, which were brought to Brazil from India between 1895 and 1964. As per the Oklahoma State University, the Nelore breed cow has a high tolerance to high temperature because of its loose and droopy skin.
Additionally, this breed has twice as many sweat glands in comparison to European cows. The Nelore breed of cows originated in India’s Nelore district, Andhra Pradesh. They are basically used as a “matriz” to breed other genetically perfect specimens.
