Cow Fact:

Highland Cattle can be found foraging 10,000 feet up in the Andes.

About Highland Cattle:
Highland cattle are a Scottish cattle breed. They have long horns and long wavy coats that are coloured black, brindle, red, yellow, white, silver (looks white but with a black nose) or dun, and they are raised primarily for their meat. They originated in the Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland and were first mentioned in the 6th century AD.
They are a hardy breed due to their native environment, the Highlands of Scotland. This results in long hair, giving the breed its ability to overwinter.
Their milk generally has a very high butterfat content, and their meat, regarded as of the highest quality, is gaining mainstream acceptance as it is low in cholesterol.
It is estimated that there are now around 15,000 Highland cattle in the United Kingdom.

Now for the puzzle:

After a morning's work there was nothing Mark loved more than a cooked breakfast. His wife, Pen DeLogg was an excellent cook, it was one of the reasons he married her. She was a farmer’s daughter which gave her a good grounding in the art of cookery.

They first met whilst they were both members of the local Young Farmers club, said to be the best dating agency for rural teenagers.

Pen learned her art of cooking from her mother Francis, who speciality was a Bacon sandwich which called a ‘young farmers wrap’ which was her secret code because she said a sandwich was something you had cold.

Mark could eat these wraps till they came out of his ears, or as Mark's favourite playwright Shakespeare used to say, “ A wrap, a wrap, my kingdom, for a wrap”.
