skcatlman I've been reading your posts. Yes as cattlemen and women we are all in this together, but BSE was NOT found in this country until an imported cow from Canada was diagnosed. Our feed ban started in 1989. The one cow I heard of that was possibly born in the US was not diagnosed until a couple of years ago.Proper records were not kept to know for sure.
Cripple Creek Packing asked the USDA if they could do a BSE test on EVERY single animal that came through, but since the USDA has been bought and sold by the Big 4 their request was denied. This happened after Japan banned US beef.
Now lets talk about what is happening now. How about those cattle in South Dakota that were found to be illegally imported Canadian cattle? Canadian cattle are suppose to be documented when they are to be shipped to the US, but it seems someone doesn't want to do this. Why?
How about the members of Cattle Producers of Washington who are now getting threats made against them because they asked for the records of cattle moving down from the border?
