When researching the gene that dilutes Charolais (D C) to white the authors found a gene at the end of chromosome 28 that appeared to soften any colour even further (makes a red animal light red, nearly yellow for example) and this may well be present in Highlands and could explain some of those 'in between cattle'. They also postulated another gene that may darken coat colour slightly. This is a lovely activity to encourage mindfulness, as your learners can develop a sense of focus as they colour in, and pay attention to their own thoughts and feelings. Mindfulness can help reduce feelings of anxiety, so it’s perfect for helping your learners' emotional wellbeing too.
