Adopt a Highland Cow
Adopt a Highland Cow packages, make ideal gifts for a birthday, anniversary or also a wonderful memento of a visit to one of our Highland Cow Experiences.
Highland cattle are hardy, fluffy cows that will eat a wide range of vegetation unpalatable to most cattle, and can live outside in all seasons and weather. These iconic coos graze our pleasant pastures on our traditional farm in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, on the edge of the Peak District. The UK’s first national park.
Adopting one of our highlands helps us provide for the livestock and carry out day-to-day management and health checks.
Sponsorship is a one-off fee valid for one year.

Adoptions are non-exclusive and do not confer ownership of any individual animal. All animals remain the property of MaHuRuCo Highlands, which reserves the right to transfer them to another location as required. In such cases, adopters will be offered an alternative animal.
Adoptions do not include an experience, and we cannot guarantee that, during an experience, you will meet your adopted cow, but every effort will be made to do so where possible if we are notified before your visit.
