unsual abortion

[TMSRANCH2]

I have a closed herd, up to date vaccinations, stringent health program. My question is about a 3.9 yr old cow, previously calved twice, who just aborted a 6.5 month fetus. She's in perfect health and flesh, cleaned out, not off feed. This is a shoulder shrugger in my 30 years of raising cattle. Anyone with thoughts.

Go to the health board there is a thread currently on the issue

Cattle are like people & any other animal. Sometimes the pregnancy just isn't meant to be - and they abort.
