Yeah, in WA. The big bull that's been running around Suncadia the last couple years.
Hit by a semi.

That is too bad, what a stud. I've seen some pics of him from prior years. He is an incredible bull

Pretty typical Washington Bull with weak 3rds.   :tung:   Bummer he's dead.

Doesn't look too beat up for having gone nose to grill with a semi? Amazing beast!
Just tend your own and live.
