Could have gotten meat from it. Instead spending lots of money and I assume the meat will go to waste. What a shame

We have wild Longhorn here in Oklahoma, They are not something to take lightly. They can be very aggressive.
So I’ll would be a kick in the pants to try. :tup:

Hunting wild LongHorn cattle in heavy brush would be crazy! :yike:

Is there something against it? If it’s feral and on public land does Ok have some law protecting it?

In Oklahoma they are mostly on wildlife refuges, so no hunting allowed.
That I know of. :bash:
We have seen the attack a couple cars in the Wichita Wild Life Refuge in SW Ok.
If you could hunt them you would get a serious amount of beef. They are huge. :tup:

Dang that would be awesome. Apparently these ones are on national forest. Not sure why they don’t sell tags for them :dunno:

The article says they'll leave them where they fall.
Those will be some spoiled coyotes for a little while.
It does seem a shame they can't sell tags.

I’d eat that
Ultimate free range beef.

Probably has to be a game animal for a tag. God forbid they allow someone to take a feral beef. Me and my dog would be eating good.Hunting wild LongHorn cattle in heavy brush would be crazy! :yike:

There probably not classified as wildlife.
Head down there and get some.
But yes they could of set something up with a food Bank or something and keep the waste down.
Or put an ad online/paper to try and get a local to round them up and auction/slaughter/or keep.

Here’s my take as a cattle breeder. Those critters have been feral, grass fed so long that they have basically developed their own unique genetics. That bull has been making a living on scrub and still fleshes out like good commercial herd bull. Why not auction the herd off to some investors to introduce a new strain of true grass raised beef? A little research into these animals might lead to better carcass traits with much less feed or head per acre that can be passed on to established commercial herds. Just a thought. :dunno:
That would be interesting to do. But tofu eating tree huggers in the forest circus don’t care about that.
