When i was travelling in al-Andalus (that is, modern Andalucia :-) in 
Dec 2000 - Jan 2001 some restaurants served what was called "veal". I 
asked about it and it turned out to be range grass-fed young cow, not 
captive milk-fed young cow. The meat was not as dark as adult cow, 
but not white like the veal i grew up eating, long before i knew how 
they were raised.

It may be possible to get that from some butchers in the US...
