The adaptation that made cattle of Spanish descent useful for interbreeding with the cattle that Anglo-Americans brought to Texas in the 1820s and 1830s was that they were better adapted to living in a dry climate. This adaptability allowed the resulting hybrid cattle to thrive in the harsh conditions of Texas.
