[QUOTE="76 Bar, post: 1598377, member: 18664"] BS on all accounts. Your vet obviously isn't proficient at conducting a proper BSE and was grasping at straws. Laying blame on a bidable nature is beyond the pale. Here's two insightful articles regarding BSE evaluations.

Such people get a viable sample within a minute or so with zero stress on the bull and most certainly, no bellowing, hind legs thrashing & rigid and having to break down the chute to extricate a traumatized animal.
