  1. Starvation causes desperation which causes revolution. These people are pushing people into a corner and they’d best be cautious. We’ve seen about enough.

  2. Also note that almost all the cattle are BLACK. Imagine that you weigh 1200+ pounds, have a giant fermentation vat inside your belly, and you are in a pen in SW Kansas, and the heat index is 105 degrees. Now, let’s also say that you have a low-grade respiratory virus, and thus you can’t purge heat as quickly as you should through respiration, and you are wearing a black fur coat.

    You gonna die.

    Do you know what the top-end of the “thermal neutral zone” of cattle is – that is the temperature at which the animal must work to stay cool? It’s 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If you say the top-end of the human TNZ is in the upper-70s, then 100 degree temps are to cattle like what 125 degrees, outside, with no shade, with a full belly like Thanksgiving dinner all the time, would be to us.

    Is this starting to make sense?

    They have a ton of feed lots up and down highway 5 in NorCal. Including Harris Ranch. It’s 100 and stupid every day in the summertime. Cows don’t die from it. And yes the cows are black

  4. This is bullcrap, cows can and do die from heat if they have no access to water, but they don’t all just fall over dead at once. The young and old, weak and sick die first and it’s a slow death.
    I keep seeing people who think they know so much don’t know shit, there are a lot of feed lots in Kansas, but it’s bs those who claim they have no water troughs, I’ve been up in them, not just seeing them from the road. Then we have the internet experts saying they should have taken fire trucks or water trucks out and sprayed them down. Give me a freaking break, you do that to beef cattle and they’re going to trample each other trying to get away.

    I’m not an expert but I’ve been around cattle much of my life and they might die from heat but not all at once and not suddenly. About the only thing I know that would do that is poison, whether deliberate or accidental, because feed/silage can and does go bad.

  5. Not all beef cattle are black, although I admit that I lost my cowboy card this week.

    I got home after work and there was this huge cow in the road. A steer. Maybe.

    I figured it had escaped from the property across the street. 300 acres. So I used my Tundra to nudge it up the street and send it up the driveway.

    That worked. And all the cattle inside the fence trotted along with him. We had ourselves a cattle drive. Awesome!

    I had it cornered and found the main gate. I opened it and urged the cow inside. I started with “don’t you want to go see your friends?” Nothing. Then I did a “yeehaw git along little dogie”. Shit.

    The massive beast shot back down the driveway never to be seen again.

    I have since surrendered my cowboy card. City slickers can’t stare down a rogue bull. I suck at it apparently.
