  • IGRA) Pre-Export Test for Rodeo Cattle of the Breeds Corriente, Brahman Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bulls (ABBI)* Guidance for Accredited Veterinarians
    Obtaining an Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) Pre-Export Test for Rodeo Cattle of the breeds Corriente, Brahman Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bulls (ABBI)* Guidance For Accredited Veterinarians For exportations of U.S. cattle of the breeds Corriente, Brahman, Texas Longhorn, and American Bucking Bull (ABBI)* to Canada on the Cattle for Breeding to Canada certificate for any purpose, an Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test is required for pre-export testing for bovine tuberculosis (M. Bovis), in addition to the caudal fold test. This requirement is as follows: Rodeo or roping type cattle limited to the breeds Corriente, Brahman, Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bull (ABBI)* (other than those temporarily imported under 90 days for exhibition) are also required to be tested negative by the Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test in addition to the caudal fold test, regardless of end-use in Canada. The blood sample must be drawn between 72 hours and 30 days following the caudal fold injection. *NOTE: If the animal is considered an “American Bucking Bull/ ABBI” animal, but is not of the breeds Corriente, Brahman, or Texas Longhorn, the importer may apply for a CFIA import permit, listing the accurate breed lineage of the animal other than American Bucking Bull/ ABBI, and the animal will not require an IGRA test. In these cases, the entry of “breed/category” on the corresponding export health certificate must match the CFIA import permit. All animals listed as “American Bucking Bull/ ABBI” on the CFIA import permit, or in the “breed/category” field of the export health certificate must have an IGRA test, regardless of true breed lineage.

For over 35 years, we have strived to produce the very best in the business. We know the competition gets better every year so we work to remain a leader in the industry. One thing we have proven is all the great bulls are backed by proven cow families. Our program takes great pride in our cows and we KNOW they are the key to our operation. We sell 200 plus females each year between the Fall Female Sale and this Bred to Buck Female Sale, so we have our cow herd fine-tuned to only the most proven cow families.

Given the absolutely abhorrent conditions that are currently plaguing your city and entire state, your efforts should be attempting to figure out your homeless problem!! Communication from Public Name: Date Submitted: 05/17/2021 01:38 PM Council File No: 20-1575 Comments for Public Posting: Please Do NOT Ban Rodeo and Bull Riding in Los Angeles! This ordinance is unnecessary – PBR already takes great care of the bulls!! - The health and safety of the animals in bull riding is paramount. These animal athletes get the best care and live a great life – extending four to five times as long as the average bull. - PBR stock contractors make their living by breeding, training, and working with their animal athletes. They truly love these animal athletes, treat them as a member of their own family, and have many safeguards in place to ensure their care. - The bulls in PBR are not wild animals forced to compete – they’re bred and trained for their jobs. Bulls buck because of their genetics. They are not abused or coerced to compete. The flank straps and dull spurs used in PBR do NOT harm the bulls. - In addition to bringing millions of dollars of economic impact to LA, bull riding teaches important values like hard work, charity, respect, responsibility, and honesty. The sport is inclusive and promotes equality.

Bulls that are determined to have an injury are not allowed to compete again until fully recovered, which is generally one to four weeks.

Herring Theodore Friend Committee Member, R. Neil Hooper Head of Department, Gary R. Acuff December 2008 Major Subject: Animal Science iii ABSTRACT Evaluation of Traits Associated with Bucking Bull Performance and Behavior. (December 2008) Natasha Elizabeth Romero, B.S., Texas A&M University Co-Chairs of Advisory Committee: Dr. Andy D. Herring Dr. Theodore Friend Video and industry data were used to assess the inter-relationships of aggression, delivery, coat color, year of birth, number of outs, buckoff percent and score in rodeo bulls. An evaluation of laterality based on observations of how the individual animals were loaded into chutes at 11 bull riding events showed 63% left-handed delivery and 37% right-handed delivery across all observations (n = 525). There was a similar distribution for aggressiveness (based on whether or not the bull charged after the rider dismounted) with 64% of bulls being non-aggressive and 36% of bulls being aggressive. Significant linear relationships existed between score and number of outs and score and buckoff percentage indicating that experience impacted performance.

  • Sunday, June 4, 2017
    Sunday, June 4, 2017 {Red River Livestock, Ardmore, OK Welcome to the 2017 Bred to Buck Sale, This sale has proven to be one of the industry’s premier offerings of elite females. We have proven that the great cow families are what produce champions in the arena. We are humbled as we have watched our genetics perform for our customers. We should have kept better records on the great bulls which have been produced out of the females we have marketed in our sales, because it would be a huge number. We have been blessed with how well our bulls have done in competition, but more times than not, the bulls that have beaten us have our genetics in their pedigree. It is great to see those genetics work and we will continue to work at making them better. This offering is loaded with proven genetics and all of them are backed by established cow families. The calves at side are the next generation and we believe the best is yet to come. It’s a challenge each year to select females for this offering. Many of the females have verified they can produce a super star and several of them are simply too young to prove themselves yet. You can’t go wrong with this group, study the pedigrees, do your homework, and buy with confidence. This industry has continued to grow and the future looks bright for the breeders. One thing we do know is great genetics will prevail. We are very fortunate to have an awesome crew at D&H Cattle Co.
