Regardless of what caused the cattle to die, what in the world do you do with thousands of dead cattle that you can’t send to market? If it was 5 or 10 I assume you would just dig a hole and drop them in but even 50 or 100 would have to be a huge hole.

There's more to this than what they are saying, however, we will likely never know.

Extreme heat is dangerous for all manner of domestic animals. They need shade and water. Add disease and other stressors and you can get a bad outcome. Some varieties like Brangus do better in high heat environments. I grew up on a farm/feedlot. I saw a few animals die during hot weather but believe there were other factors as well.

Bring your pets into the AC.

I imagine they can send a few to dog food manufacturers. But not 2000 at a whack.

I’m guessing that they will shove them in a hole and burn them
