[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1846138, member: 19817"] It started because the LP of Michigan had TB in the cattle herd. So Wisconsin treated the whole state as one unit (even though the UP is separated by 4 miles of water) and said no cattle from Michigan as we had TB even though the UP never has a cow test positive. That rule has since changed somewhat with split TB zones so while I think it's technically possible, in practice Wisconsin sale barns typically won't sell Michigan cattle. Wisconsin has some strict import rules on having to have vet paperwork for each animal with its ID number on it, negative TB test in certain cases, etc. So its to time consuming and costly to attempt to comply with their rules, so we bypass the state all together.
