[QUOTE="Alice, post: 356880, member: 3873"] My first thought is to call a vet, and if for some reason you can't do that, then my next thought is to put him out of his misery. Barring that, can you put some sort of bedding down for him to get him off the packed snow? I would think that would be the same as laying on cold concrete...which, if the steer has pneumona, is the worst thing in the world for it. Can the steer be driven to a barn? A shelter? Also, if the steer is injured in his leg or has a joint problem, maybe a shot of dexamethazone would be in order. But, back to my first thought...why don't you call the vet? Alice [/QUOTE]
