This breed was kept by Julius’ grandparents in present day Ankole region in Western Uganda particularly the area now known as Sheema District, Kitagata which is adjacent to areas like Queen Elizabeth National Park and well known for the famous Kitagata Hot Springs.

Julius spent a great amount of his childhood years grazing his late grandfather’s ankole cattle a passion that only translated into the commercial farmer and owner of Nimukama Mixed Farm that he now is. Julius is an ardent lover of cattle, almost to infectious levels!
