I have bought a 6 month old Angus/Limousine bull but can not catch it. He has went through the catch pen wire 2 times and will not go back in now. We can only get about 20 feet from him before he bolts. We have tried feeding him in the pen, but he just will not go in. We have tried using a laso, but could not get close to him, plus neither of us know how to throw one. This has went on for about 2 weeks now and are getting ready to take him to the slaughter house if we can not catch him. Does anyone know anything about tranqulizers? I raise horses as well as the fellow that I am buying this bull from, but we only ride for fun, and neither of us or our horses are roping trained. If we could calm him down, we could get a rope on him and get him in the trailer. He weights between 550 and 600 lbs. What can we use to calm him down? Our horse vet is on a 4 week cruise and is still 2 weeks from being here. Please help. thanks, Brian
