If the charges prove to be true, this is a massive theft of 450 head of cattle that originated in Missouri, but ended up in Wisconsin. The result is allegations that a Wisconsin man received this herd without paying for them.
There's now reason to be seriously concerned about recent cases of the bird flu as the state of Missouri has now issued a warning about this highly contagious sickness that has now been detected in a farm worker.
The bird flu is back and it's spreading including one case where a human has been sickened after contact with cattle. I have also confirmed that bird flu has been confirmed in Missouri in 2024 affecting flock sizes of over 90,000.
This recall hits very close to home literally. There's an urgent recall just issued from a Quincy, Illinois company regarding feed that has elevated levels of ingredients that can be harmful to cattle and fatal to chickens. The feed is commonly available in both Missouri and Illinois.
If you want something done and done right, find a Missouri working dog. Don't believe me? You should see a team of canines who convinced a bunch of cattle that they needed to load onto a trailer like it was nothing.
It's no secret that law enforcement is not an easy job, but it's also not a dull one. Take for example a Ralls County deputy who suddenly had to become a cattle rustler Thursday morning when a cow went rogue.
This is not conspiracy theory or wild imaginations at work. There was a time almost 45 years ago when farmers in Elsberry, Missouri really did believe that UFO's were responsible for cattle mutilations and I can prove it with video.
Two brothers flew to Missouri to complete a cattle deal. They never returned home. Now, a Missouri man will serve 2 life sentences after he confessed to killing the men over a cattle contract and burning their bodies.
If you live in Illinois or Missouri, this is just one of the many things that can happen during your morning commute. A lone cow who got loose put a stop to vehicles recently because he/she can.
