            A few years ago, the administration of the Bavarian Forest National Park decided to continue the cultivation of some Schachten with cattle. These meadows were cleared centuries ago as summer grazing areas for cattle in the forests in the Bavarian Forest. Later, this form of grazing became unprofitable and was abandoned. Since then, the Schachten, which are  considered cultural monuments, have been in danger of becoming overgrown with forest again. Rotes Höhenvieh ("red upland cattle")  was selected as the cattle breed.

Die Verwaltung des Nationalparks Bayerischer Wald hat sich vor einigen Jahren entschieden, einige Schachten wieder mit Rindern zu pflegen. Diese Wiesen wurden vor Jahrhunderten als Sommerweideflächen für Rinder in den Wäldern im Bayerischen Wald gerodet. Später wurde diese Beweidungsform unrentabel und aufgegeben. Seitdem drohen die Schachten, die heute als Kulturdenkmäler gelten, wieder mit Wald zuzuwachsen.  Als Rinderrasse wurde  das "Rote Höhenvieh" ausgewählt.
