I think Texas Castle Doctrine covers cattle specifically. Just make sure it gets two hooves in the front door.

Huh? I thought the back hooves went in the waders?

In most states the law is you must build a fence to keep livestock OUT not IN, so technically (depending on state; but I believe Texas is one) YOU are the party at fault in the eyes of the law. If the cattle damages your property the owner will need to pay to get it fixed, but if you kill them you will have to pay damages and vet fees, etc.

Only one thing to do and that's eat all the evidence.

In Arizona, if the cattle damage your property, it is your problem. Yet another subsidy for welfare ranchers. The only exceptions are in urban areas specified as No-fence Districts.

Edit: Also, if a rancher allows their cattle to run on the highway (which they do) and someone drives into them, the rancher gets reimbursed for the damage to the livestock and has no liability for death or damage to the driver, passengers, are vehicle. Ranchers are rewarded for their own irresponsible behavior.

i see oilfield trucks leaving gates open from time to time here - with cattle roaming about. from the gate it's about ~200ft to the interstate.

yea...first I have ever heard of that and I have had plenty of livestock for neighbors.

Our old neighbor had chickens that got out all the damn time. He didn't even get mad when the dogs killed them. I've lived with horses before and I know the fences were up to keep them in, though the sneaky fuckers would always get out and wander 2 miles down the road.

Probably all those vaccines the cows get, cause them to run wild.

I once lived next to a farm that had free roaming sheep and there were a few mornings I was awakened by the sound of bleating sheep just outside my bedroom window -- makes for a confusing and disturbing few moments as you go from being asleep to being awake. You don't want to be deep into sexual fantasy when that happens!!!

Aim for the wet spot?

 

[Fritzo]

If they get out, aren't you supposed to be partying until the cows come home?

 

[mmntech]

Texas problems.

 

[halik]

I can't think of the last time I've seen a live cow.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

My neighbor has cattle. I've only ever seen them once. Property is lined by trees and they have a lot of land.
