[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 720242, member: 12607"] Until this one in the GYA popped up, there had not been a herd diagnosed with brucellosis since 2006. I'm suspecting this one is probably crossover from bison/elk migrating out of the park. If the feds would/could clean up that mess, there'd be no need for anyone to vaccinate. Those of us in the eastern US - and actually, most of the US - are in states that have been declared 'Brucellosis-Free' for many years, and state/federal regulatory authorities involved in the Brucellosis eradication program have advised against vaccination of heifers for some time, because they were spending an inordinate amount of time chasing down vaccination 'suspects' that had persistent titers - usually due to having been vaccinated over-age or after they reached puberty. They even dispensed with market cattle testing several years ago here in KY.
