The Charolais (French: [ʃaʁɔlɛ]) or Charolaise ([ʃaʁɔlɛz]) is a French breed of taurine beef cattle. It originates in, and is named for, the Charolais area surrounding Charolles,[4] in the Saône-et-Loire department, in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of eastern France.
Charolais are raised for meat; they may be crossed with other breeds, including Angus and Hereford cattle.
