longhorned

Cattle with reach

Longhorned describes creatures or things with notably long horns or horn-like projections.

The term appears most often in compound names: longhorned beetles have antennae longer than their bodies, longhorned grasshoppers bear threadlike feelers, and longhorned cattle are breeds with sweeping horns like the Texas longhorn.
