Charlois is a breed of what species of livestock?

Charolais is a breed specifically recognized within the beef cattle category. Originating from the Charolais region in France, this breed is well-known for its high-quality meat production, characterized by its muscular build and efficient growth rates. Charolais cattle have a distinctive creamy white color and are often crossed with other breeds to enhance meat quality and yield. In cattle husbandry, the emphasis on beef production and the economic importance of Charolais cattle underline why this breed is categorized under beef cattle rather than any other species such as pigs, sheep, or dairy cattle. Each of those species has distinct purposes and breeding characteristics that differ significantly from the beef-focused attributes of Charolais cattle.
