Last year was a time of huge achievements for Irish-bred pedigree cattle in Northern Ireland, the UK and further afield.
The Irish-owned, red-and-white Holstein Friesian cow, Lookout Burning It Up Red made a mighty splash on the North American show circuit in 2022.
This show-topper is owned by Morgan Sheehy and Alan Kelleher (Elitehaven Genetics) and is housed at the world- renowned Lookout Holsteins herd in Quebec, Canada.
She is believed to be the first ever European-owned animal to win the red-and-white intermediate championship at the World Dairy Expo.
Burning It Up Red comes from a double line of champions, with two of the most iconic breed families in her pedigree.
She is sired by Altitude Red, the number two proven red sire for type in the world with a predicted transmitting ability for type (PTAT) of +2.92, an udder composite index (UCI) of +2.32 and a feet and legs composite (FLC) of 1.63.
