You’ll see some new faces out on the pasture when visiting NC State’s Howling Cow Dairy Education Center and Creamery this summer. NC State is now home to all seven major breeds of dairy cows, a goal that Devan Pendry, NC State dairy herd manager and alumna, has had since she was an active member of the Animal Science Club.

As a student, Pendry enjoyed learning about the different breeds. “I thought it’d be really neat to have all of them here. Most people know the black and white Holsteins, but what they don’t realize is that’s not the only dairy breed. There are others out there.”
