Highlands and humans have been interacting for so long over the span of history, that they will naturally be a good choice for a backyard grazer. Highlands are also known for their calving ease, being good mothers and for being docile. This allows for more highlands/acre then general cattle. They resemble a goat in that they will eat brush and weeds. Another trait of the Highland that sets it apart from other breeds is their grazing/or browsing. This allows them to handle extreme weather conditions that other cattle would not be able to handle.
