We were down in the Sweetgrass area of Montana last summer prospecting for gold and the cows down there all had horns like you described. There is no grass like we see up here but they survive and thrive on what is called cluff or clump grass that grows in little tuffs all over the place. These black and red angus herefords crosses were the healthiest looking cows I have ever seen. There was a lead cow who kept chasing the other cows to a higher elevation as we came along the trail and not once did she take her eyes off us. The only sign these cows were attended to by humans was the occasional salt lick left along the trail. These cows were also very very small maybe about 13.5 hands high in horse terms. One thing I have noticed about cows is they always tend to head east when they get loose. Maybe this is not always true but I have never seen them go any other direction.
