[QUOTE="Beefalocw, post: 1015350, member: 20575"] I had a 22 year old cow that suddenly stopped calving, so we had her butchered, she had growths on her ovaries. That could happen with any cow. She was a grand champion. According to the records the guy had before I purchased her, and my own, including 2 sets of twins in her lifetime, she calved 24 calves. Can you imagine that out of an Angus? Also her teeth, although starting to wear, were still in fair shape when she was slaughtered. We had to DNA test, first blood, later tail hair to UC Davis in California. I have a theory, it is my own, that Bison, and Cattle are the same species, only changes within the species brought out certain traits over a long period of time. The DNA test were so specific, that they could tell you if the sire was really another bull than you thought when you filled out the paperwork to register them. Beefalo prefer better grass, but certainly will eat just about anything if needed. Interesting about the Rocky Mtn Arsenal herd. [/QUOTE]
