The most expensive cow in Australia was just sold for $70,000. The cow, a Charolais named Maxine, was sold from the Palgrove Charolais Stud near Warwick to another ranch in Queensland. This, of course, prompted us to wonder what the most expensive cow in the world is.
A farmer at Kelber Hill Farm in Gargrave, England, currently owns the world’s most expensive cow. One of a herd of Holsteins, the cow was purchased from America for $1 million. The farmer had some trouble getting the local planning committee to allow him to build a house in open countryside in order to protect the valuable cattle. His application was finally approved in 2007.
A Holstein cow.
The Holstein isn’t the most expensive cow ever, though. According to Guinness World Records, that honor belongs to a Friesian purchased in 1985. The expensive cow was auctioned off in Vermont for an astounding price of $1.3 million.
