[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1527724, member: 498"] When I lived in Western Washington only about 10=15% of the cattle were branded. Over here in Eastern Oregon it is over 90%. Rustling still occurs but when it happens it is on a much bigger scale. I have a friend who between him and a neighbor lost a semi load a few years ago. 100% of these cows and calves were branded. The cattle were out in steep country that would take some cowboys horseback with good dogs to gather. But the cows disappeared without a trace. That isn't meth heads. That is someone who knows how to cowboy and has a place to take them. Same general area one bull a year for four years disappeared. At least 2 of those bulls had been seen the day before. They figure those bulls ended up in a taco wagon down in the valley. They were all branded but a brand isn't much good if someone peels the hide off. [/QUOTE]
