Nuba Mountain
(most common name)

(local/other name):
• Kawlib
• Koalib
• Nuba Dwarf

The Nuba Mountain began as a small, black, humpless, locally derived breed that was similar to the West African Shorthorn. But continual crossing with neighboring zebu cattle (especially the Baggara) has now made it a small zebu instead.
