The cattle here look small in stature or is that just me? What breed are they? I assume they are being used to keep the grass short?

I made a mistake: it’s Iris and Robert. Iris was 2 years old on 26th October and Robert was born on 4th June 2018, and they are both pedigree Shetland cattle.
The marsh cattle are my 24/7/365 conservation team; their function is to eat the vegetation as instructed, and they are very good at their jobs.
