My Toughest Job
Another tough winter has brought me to the toughest thing you have to do as a rancher. The 30 to 40 below temperatures froze the feet off of a calf and there is no real option other than ending its suffering. Its tough to do, especially knowing how great of mothers some of these cows are. I wish I could explain to them that there is no hope and its the right thing to do. I love my animals and its tough, but you can't let them suffer. And life goes on.
