The Bestuzhev cattle ([Бестужевская, Bestuzhevskaya] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)) is a dual-purpose (beef and dairy) cattle breed from Uzbekistan, created in Soviet times by crossing the native Zebu cattle with Dutch, Brown Swiss and some Simmental bulls.

The breed shows resistance to bovine leukosis.[1][clarification needed]
