Charles Goodnight was one of the first to succeed, and called his hybrid cattalo.

The new name, beefalo, was meant to separate this hybrid from the problems associated with the old cattalo hybrids.

He also crossbred buffalo with domestic cattle, which he called cattalo.

Jones himself later tried producing cattalo.

Then there are the cattalo and the beefalo , crosses between cattle and buffalo, first attempted in Texas.

The Story of Cattalo.

American bison bulls (American "buffalo") have been crossed with domestic cattle to produce beefalo and cattalo.

Although the cattalo performed well, the mating problems meant the breeder had to maintain a herd of wild and difficult-to-handle bison cows.

He also maintained a buffalo herd, which he bred with cattle to produce the "cattalo", also known as the "beefalo".

These same corrals were later home to a "cattalo," a hybrid between one of Jones' buffalos and a domesticated Hereford bull.

Jones met the pioneer Texas rancher Charles Goodnight, who was crossbreeding buffalo with cattle to produce beefalo, also called cattalo, an otherwise sturdy breed often born sterile.

In 1906, the American frontiersman Charles "Buffalo" Jones bred Galloway cattle with bison to produce cattalo but found the mixed breed lacking in fecundity.

The term cattalo is defined by United States law as a cross of bison and cattle which have a bison appearance; in Canada, however, the term is used for hybrids of all degrees and appearance.

Charles "Buffalo" Jones, a co-founder of Garden City, Kansas, after meeting with Goodnight in Texas, also bred cattalo, or beefalo, on a ranch near Grand Canyon National Park in northern Arizona.

In 1906, Jones began crossbreeding cattalo, these particular buffalo crossbred with Galloway cattle on a government ranch located along the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in the Kaibab Plateau area of northern Arizona.
