[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 185532, member: 3162"] There are possibilities and circumstances at times. Consider, it just could be that the cow and bull were winking at one another over the fences and the cow or bull crossed over. Maybe even a couple of times. To preclude recurrence he just penned them and fixed the fence. I would confront him and give him the opportunity to explain "what the heck is going on?????" There have been times in my life that if a neighbor would have driven up and assumed the worse, explanations could have been difficult. Now days there are cell phones and I have all neighbor's numbers programmed in. Does this guy know how to contact you or your son-in-law. If so, I'd be more than a little ticked. If dirty deeds are revealed, report it to the sheriff. That will be especially helpful if things go awry. Sorry you are experiencing this. In 1990 this whole area burned off. Fire depts were cutting fences left and right to get to the flames and to let animals get out of danger. Cows and horses were running the roads. People penned them to protect them. Of course, everyone in this area that new one another were thankful. There were those who didn't live on their places getting ticked off at folks for having their cows penned up, and they had been fed and watered, well cared for etc. I guess they expected us to rebuild their fences and drive their cattle home after we had fed them and watered them etc. We were trying to repair our own. I had lost three buildings and was fortunate because I didn't lose my home like others did. Some people were not even gracious that we had taken theie animals off of the roadways. Others were. Anyway, there may be reasons for your given situation. Doesn't sound like it tho. [/QUOTE]
