Changes for 2006 -
Dexter cattle have moved from Watch to Recovering based on estimates of global populations of about 15,000, even though U.S. registration numbers do not yet reach the Recovering threshold. This breed is a real success story as Dexters moved from a cute hobby breed a couple of decades ago to fill production niches in small scale beef production and family-cow dairy production.
