El primer ganado Gyr en América fue llevado a Brasil, país en donde se difundió ampliamente en las provincias centrales y sureñas. El ganado Gyr mexicano es de estirpe brasileña. Se le exportó de Brasil a Estados Unidos para formar el Brahaman Rojo.

Características físicas
Es una raza de talla media, siendo su distinción sobre las demás razas la conformación de su cabeza, que posee frente muy amplia y convexa, haciéndola inconfundible. Los cuernos son caídos y dirigidos hacia atrás, algo hacia afuera y con curvatura hacia arriba. Las orejas son largas y colgantes terminadas en punta y con una muesca.
Su piel es colgante y floja; el color típico es blanco moteado de rojo habiendo estirpes con más rojo que blanco, encontrándose ejemplares en el que se da el caso de ruanismo.
El cuello es corto y grueso en los toros, y fino en las vacas. La giba es grande y en forma de riñón. El dorso y el lomo son anchos y horizontales, lo mismo que la grupa.

Gyr (Gur, Gir)

These cattle are in my opinion the most versatile and productive both in meat and milk per hectare.

Temperament
The single most outstanding characteristic I have found with the Gyr is the temperament. They are extremely intelligent and very willing cattle to work with. You have to personally handle them to comprehend how placid they are, they are not just quiet.

Size
The Gyr is a medium to medium large animal, depending on whether they were developed in the Gyr valley region or in the surrounding mountain area.

Colour
They can be either spotted (very fine spotting similar to roan in shorthorn) or rich red with varying degrees of the two combined. The undercoat is always red. Even on cattle that may almost appear white, if they are scarred either by injury or branding the regrowth hair will always be red.

Conformation
They have a very fleshy body, being particularly full along the backline and not weak behind the shoulders as most of the Bos indigus cattle seem to be. The Gyr have the best shaped hind quarter of all zebu cattle I have seen, being reasonably long deep and full. The hind quarters do appear to be a little tight between the legs on some animals, but this seems to fill out as they gain condition.

The rump is sloping, unlike in Bos taurus cattle. This has been proven by Dr. Butterfield to have no significance to the flesh capacity. I also believe that this has a large contribution to the non-existent calving problems in the cows.

Head
An outstanding feature is their head. They have a very convex forehead (it has been suggested that this may have something to do with keeping their brain cool and hence reducing stress). The head is carried very low, even when fully raised it hardly comes up to the hump, similar to a buffalo.
