Nope he wouldn't but things like that come out sooner or later.
Bet you would be about as happy as me if I found out a fellow banded one of mine.
Bull's and cow's are going to get out from time to time that just goes with the territory.
Anyone that hasn't had a cow get out hasn't owned cow's very long.

The only way you could have a bull-proof fence,is if you could get an experienced escape artist angus bull to draw you up a set of plans.Just yesterday I cemented four iron pipe in the ground for a gate.I was planning on welding my cross braces this morning and hang the gate.Meanwhile after I pulled out of the pasture the cows decided the new posts would make a good rub.When I arived with the welding trailer today the cement had set alright but 3 of the posts were leaning in 3 different directions.Had to go back and get the tractor with the FL and pull them out and start over,that is after I moved the cows.

You know the old saying if you want an Angus in your pasture drop him off two neighbors over.

Really? I don't have any neighbors with cattle, so when mine get out, they just wait at the gate to be let back in. lol

If you had neighbors, you wouldn't even have to buy an angus bull. Of course, the one breeding your heifers too young and breeding all your cows would be the sorriest looking bull you ever saw. Well, a step above Demetrious maybe.

Unless them fences were ten feet high

this boy can jump them without catching a toe.

When they were leaving, his brother - I had to put a new, higher rail on the loading yards and a hotwire on top of that and even so... we only got him on the truck because that hot wire caught him across the shoulders and he didn't know whether to go up or down.
being a good operator simply increases the chances that the owner of your lease block will call it a good farm and sell it for way more than it's worth.
