The aurochs (Bos primigenius) (/ ˈ ɔː r ɒ k s / or / ˈ aʊ r ɒ k s /, plural aurochs or aurochsen) is an extinct species of bovine, considered to be the wild ancestor of modern domestic cattle. With a shoulder height of up to 180 cm (71 in) in bulls and 155 cm (61 in) in cows, it was one of the largest herbivores in the Holocene ; it had ...
Heck bulls are not larger than other domestic bulls and actually a little smaller than cattle used in modern intensive agriculture, [9] whilst aurochs bulls reached shoulder heights of between 160 and 180 and in rare cases even 200 cm. Aurochs bulls are believed to have weighed some 700 to 1000 kg (1500 to 2200 lb).
The project largely uses hardy cattle breeds with superficial resemblance to the extinct aurochs. [citation needed] By crossbreeding and selective breeding it tries to establish similarity to the aurochs. The long-term goal is to release these Tauros cattle into rewilding areas. The project was founded in 2008, and the actual breeding program ...

Taurus cattle are listed in the herdbook X of the German Heck cattle association VFA. There is an increasing interest of Heck cattle breeders in using Taurus cattle because of their larger resemblance to the aurochs, so that there is a continuum between Taurus cattle and un-crossed Heck cattle. [4]
